Playing with cards
My boyfriend is really into playing cards so I
decided to make something special for his birthday related to cards. I
searched and searched for ideas and came across a small box made of cards.
I thought this idea was really neat. I wanted to make the box
larger though in order to put other presents in it. SOOOOOO.....I went
out and bought about 5 decks of cards and got started. I interlocked the
cards together until I got the size box I wanted. I then made a lid with
a latch. I had cards left over so I interlocked more cards to make a card
card :) When it was all said and done I added a few decks of playing
cards and a bag of m&ms to the box. It was a pretty sweet present for
a card lover.

How did you get the cards to interlock? The box looks great, and I love the idea of a card card! :)
ReplyDeleteIt is kind of complicated to explain, but here is a link to show how to start it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZiuEsmB8T4&noredirect=1 but this one is a small box. I will take a few pictures and post them to show how I did it :)
