A box for money for a wedding with your own hands: photo and video. Master-class with step-by-step instruction

Step-by-step instruction for the self-manufacturing of a wedding box for money

Necessary materials:

• 
  a small box;


• 
  dense cardboard (you can also use old boxes or parts thereof);


• 
  double sided tape;


• 
  high-quality glue-pencil;


• 
  ruler;


• 
  thermo-gun;


• 
  stationery knife;


• 
  tape measure;


• 
  pen or pencil;


• 
  scissors;


• 
  paint or transparent tape;


• 
  satin or crepe-satin of the appropriate shade;


• 
  beautiful lace;


• 
  a small bouquet or some small flowers;


• 
  decorative bow.
  

  
  

  
  

1. 
   Cut the lid of the box, as in the photo. We use a clerical knife and scissors.
   

   
   

   
   We strengthen the obtained high "walls" with appropriate pieces of cardboard, gluing them on a double-sided adhesive tape.


2. 
   We cut out details for wide walls and also glue them to the base. We make sure that all sections are smooth.


3. 
   With the help of paint or ordinary tape, we fix the corners of the structure.


4. 
   When the corners are securely fixed, we form a "cover"trunk. To do this, measure the top section of a wide wall and cut out a piece from a sheet of cardboard. Then exactly in the center we mark out the hole for money, making it slightly larger than the width of the standard envelope.
   

   
   

   
   Note! For this part, it is important to use a tight cardboard, because it is easy to mold. Multilayer corrugated board for the upper part is not suitable, but it is perfect for creating walls of a structure.


5. 
   Carefully cut through the hole, putting the cardboard on the tape tape - as in the video. Corrections are corrected using scissors.


6. 
   We give the details a semicircular shape.
   

   
   

   
   


7. 
   Cut two thin strips of double-sided adhesive tape and glue each to the top section of the wide wall of the structure. We glue the upper part to these strips.
   

   
   

   
   


8. 
   We cut out suitable semicircular parts,correct and customize them, bringing in full compliance with the shape of the upper part. A little wind them under the top part (literally half a millimeter) and fix the corners with scotch tape. In order for the tape to repeat the semicircular shape and securely fix the joints, it is necessary, after gluing one half of the piece, to cut the free end in half. Then, fixing one half, glue the second a little obliquely - in this way you get something like a dart. The adhesive tape thus pasted will not bubble, deforming the edge and the work will turn out quite accurate.
   

   
   

   
   


9. 
   Prepare fabric and lace to work.
   

   
   

   
   They must be carefully ironed.


10. 
    After measuring the chest, cut out the part of the corresponding dimensions.


11. 
    On the perimeter of the bottom of the structure, glue the double-sided adhesive tape and pull the fabric well. Keep the side parts in a free position.


12. 
    Carefully cut through the hole, as in the photo.
    

    
    

    
    


13. 
    Turn the structure upside down. Lubricate the inside of the slot (cardboard part) with a glue-pencil.


14. 
    Gently bend the fabric allowances inwards while gluing them. Wait until it is dry.


15. 
    Cut two strips of lace and paste each thermo-pistol so that their edges protrude above the slits of the slit by 1-1.5 mm.
    

    
    

    
    


16. 
    The side parts are decorated with beautiful drapery, fixing each crease with a thermo-gun. The end is glued to the bottom of the structure.
    

    
    

    
    


17. 
    The box for money is almost ready - leftthe final stage of the composition. So, cut off three more lace bands (the length of the third corresponds to the perimeter of the lower part plus the allowance for the bend). The first two strips are glued so that the edges of the segments are closed on the hole for money. For fixing use a double-sided tape or hot melt.
    

    
    

    
    


18. 
    It remains to attach a bouquet or a composition of flowers. We insert the bottom of the box.
