Jewellery Chest - Popsicle / ice stick craft

Got boosted by the reward yesterday. So sat up and made this beautiful jewellery chest to treat myself.... :-)

Easy fun project for kids.


 

This is how I made it

Materials :
  1.  Popsicle sticks
  2. Fevicol
  3. Velvette cloth
  4. Embellishments using pearls, chamkis etc
  5. Glass colours
  6. Gold glitter glue
  7. Zari border
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Step :1 :  For the base, arrange sticks like this :- (make - 2) one for base and other for lid



Step 2 : Place one stick on top and one at the bottom as shown in the pic (do this for both pieces)



One piece keep for lid (that is over. only decoration need to be done)

The other piece use for base & proceed as shown in the following pictures.



similarly arrange sticks two vertical over lapping the end place two horizontal - alternatively by applying glue on the ends till you get the desired height.

Once the box is ready, decorate it with the decoration materials.





 







Chest is ready to hold your treasures :-)
