Fabric Covered Cardboard Boxes

Inexpensive way to create matching storage for the take apart small cardboard shipping boxes.
These boxes work so well. Make sure you protect floor of your work area from the over spray of adhesive. I used a garbage bag.
Spray the adhesive on the front area of box.
Working pretty quickly, work fabric up from one end by sliding with your hands and smoothing as you go. You will have time for a do over!
Turn over after the piece has dried.
I opted to cover the front lip of my box with fabric and glued it with a good fast glue.
Cut the fabric up to the edge of the box.
A craft knife works great for the small hole insert.
Then refold the boxes
Matching storage, you could do this with larger boxes of course, like the folding file boxes. Perfect.

Much easier than covering a regular box. Thanks for sharing!

Like the idea. Have lots of shipping boxes around, all sizes. Thanks. Will certainly cover them now.
