Materials Needed
1 Piece of foamboard
1 square of felt
Stick pins
Glue
Wire dish rack from dollar tree
Small storage boxes dollar tree
Materials for decorating ( I used washi tape and ribbon from dollar tree)
Cut foam board into the following pieces
12 X 11 inches
12 X ½ inches (2 of these)
12.5 X 3 inches (2 of these) Sides
12 X 3 inches (2 of these) Top & Bottom
Glue the square of felt onto the bottom portion of the 12 X 11 piece of foamboard
Use the 12 X ½ inch piece of foamboard as a guide with the 12 X 3 pieces of foamboard, to place top and bottom sides of the station.
Use stick pins to attach the two pieces of foamboard together.
Once in place separate enough to add glue and then seal back in place.
To attach the sides run glue along all the edges then place the 12.5 X 3 pieces of foamboard aligning them so that they are even with the top and bottom pieces already in place.
There will be some over hang on one end so that you get a good fit
once everything is in place trim this off.
Place the 12 X ½ inch piece at the top edge of the felt
glue in place and add stick pins in sides and along top to secure into place.
These will stick out of the bottom . You will use wire cutters to snip them off
when finished.
Underneath run glue
along all the edges to reinforce and seal any cracks
You can also do this
in the small sections on the front .
Decorate to your preference
I used what I had Washi tape and ribbon.
Since washi tape likes to lift up I glued it down to the top edges to give it a nice finished look.
For the sides I pinned
the ribbon into place at each of the
corners and glued them down into place as I went around. Using clamps to hold
as it dried. Let dry over night.
I picked up this wire
dish rack from the dollar tree as well as these 5 small plastic containers.
Place rack on its side great way to have your tools handy and use containers for
the projects
your working on or to store your favorite beads or findings.
Put it all together
and your done and it wouldn’t be complete without my magnifying light.
Enjoy your Jewelry
