Cereal box Magazine holder

Using empty cereal boxes I created some cute magazine holders.

These are so easy to make and they look great sitting on a shelf.

For this project you will need:

-A Large Cereal Box.

-2 12×12 sheets of decorative paper (2 for 1 box)

-Mod Podge

-Scissors

-Ruler

To make, first cut off the top of the cereal box, then using a ruler draw a line across the box (I left 3 inches on top and 4 1/4 on side) cut out. Use cut off piece as a template for the opposite side.

Trace Cereal box onto decorative paper, cut out then Mod Podge on. (use directions on container)

Note: Let an inch of the the paper hang over the edges of the box, this is so you can fold it over like a present on the bottom of the box, I used some of the left over paper and placed in the center, to fill in the gap.

I think they turned out really cute, but the problem with these ones is that they don’t actually fit a magazine in them. I think the economy is making our cereal boxes shrink. 

 It does however fit bills really well.
