Yield: 1
Equipment
- 1 large oatmeal container, empty and the label removed
- adhesive fabric tape
- 5/8" ribbon
- E6000 glue
- Scissors
- Pipe Cleaners
- Decorative Butterflies
- hot glue and hot glue gun
- Pencil
- Colored Card Stock
- Rubbing Alcohol
- Cotton ball
- ruler
- glass candle stick
Instructions
- Step 1. Remove the lid from the container and set aside. Use ruler and pencil to mark the center of the container on the bottom.
- Step 2. Cut a piece of fabric tape and wrap the oatmeal container in it. If any fabric tape hangs on the bottom of the container, simply cut slits about 1/2" apart and tuck the fabric tape under the container.
- Step 3. Place the lid on a piece of card stock and trace it onto the paper. Cut out, just inside the line so the paper fits on top of the lid.
- Step 4. Attach the paper to the lid with hot glue. Once you are finished hot gluing, place the lid on the container.
- Step 5. Wrap pipe cleaners around a pencil to create a spring. Use hot glue to affix one end of the "spring" onto the butterfly.
- Step 6. Repeat until there are three butterflies on three separate pipe cleaner springs.
- Step 7. Attach the opposite end of the spring to the rim of the lid with hot glue. (Note: attach the "springs" onto the back of the container where the seam of the fabric tape is.)
- Step 8. Wrap the rim of the container, covering the lid edge, with ribbon and tie into a bow. If necessary secure with hot glue.
- Step 9. Wipe the top of the candlestick with a cotton ball coated in rubbing alcohol to remove oils and clean it. Let dry.
- Step 10. Spread E6000 glue onto the top of the glass candle stick and gently press into the center of the container using the center mark as a guide. Set overnight to set up.
- Step 11. When completely dry, add your favorite headbands to store them.
