Hello,
Some of you may remember the tutorial for the crisp packet coaster I did a while ago (if not it is on the free pattern page if you want to check it out :)
I kept saying to myself I wanted to turn some into a box but never did. Finally about a week ago I got round to it and sewed a few of the coasters I made a while ago into this little pencil pot:
It was sitting in my room and my brother said he really liked him so I said he could have it- it was just my little experiment but now it has a home :-P
I might try making some large versions of the coasters- placement size to make table setting sets and maybe even try making some boxes with lids- I will do some more experimenting!
See you all soon,
Bye xxx
I like it! If you did a hole in the bottom one about the size of a walnut, then turned it upside down it would be an awesome tissue box cover :)
