DIY Map Box

we all love take-out, don't we?

well how about turning take-out into art?
I'm not sure what I'll use it for yet, maybe to hold jewelry or notes


Here's how:



GATHER YOUR MATERIALS:
  • a map (preferably an old one that you don't use anymore)
  • scissors
  • a pencil
  • mod podge (or glue)
  • a paint brush (to spread the mod podge or glue)
  • a Chinese food take-out box




STEP ONE:
Unfold da box. Easy so far, right?



STEP TWO:
Trace the box onto the map in a desired area & cut it out



STEP THREE:
Glue the map piece to the box & fold it up!
VOILA!


Enjoy!

Here are some more photos of the process & finished product:
