All God's children blow their noses! Kids can make
a really useful gift.
We will be adding more holiday and
event covers over time. All instructions are the same for all designs.
Most facial tissue cubes are pretty much the same
size - Kleenex and generics - so find them on sale to be ready to use
when you like.
Our size fits boxes 4.25- 4.3 inches wide on all sides
and about 5.25 tall. When choosing boxes, be mindful that the top is
not covered. The bottom is not covered either.
It is just 2 easy pieces. Easy cutting. Careful folding.
It couldn't be an easier craft with such great results
and makes a really terrific gift.
Make a gift for dad. Make a gift for mom. Make a gift
anyone can use.
Kindergarten - through 5th grade
Gift for Easter
A "Kleenex" cube box for
each student
Copy of both pages for each student
Scissors
Markers or crayons
Glue
Tape (optional)
Buy Tissue boxes!
Identify sides 1-2 and the other piece, sides 3-4
Instructions are also printed on each
page.
Hint: When gluing, try standing the box up and setting
the paper around the box. This will help it stay even with the bottom
(table) edge. If you need to start with the box on its side, stand it
up as soon as possible and re-align the paper if needed before the glue
sets.
1. Cut out both pages sides 1-2
and sides 3-4 on solid lines 2. Color both pages. Complete the "To"
and "From". (How about to mom and dad?)
3. Fold on all dashed lines on both
pages. Look carefully. 4. Glue all edges of page sides 1-2 (with
little flaps). Teacher check the folds before each student glues.
Be sure it is folded ON THE CENTERFOLD accurately.
5. Place the centerfold of sides
1-2 on a corner of the box. Wrap the paper around the box being
careful that the top and bottom of the paper are even with the top
and bottom of the box.
6. Be sure the little flaps on side 1-2 are glued
to the box.
7. Glue all around the edges of page sides 3-4
8. Align the centerfold line on this paper to
the corner diagonally opposite the first centerfold. This allows
best fit. (Or you can start by overlapping one of the little flaps,
but you must be more careful in aligning the paper to the box)
9. That's it! You're done. (Unless it needs a
little tape to hold while the glue dries)
