It was also in The Big Ass Book Of Crafts.
First of all you will need
Magazines
Glue
Hot Glue Gun
Something Round
The first step is to cut several 2in strips from the pages ( cutting the pages the long way)
When you have several strips you will start rolling them, and keep gluing the strip you are adding each time.
And keep going...
Go until you have reached your desired size of the bottom.
You will then need to use your round object to create the sides. I am using a round foundation bottle. You need to take your strip and glue it togeter creating an open circle
After you have your open circles created you will need to start hot gluing them to the base so that they sit evenly with the bottom. (I could not get a good pic of this)
Then you keep adding circles until you get to the desired height. Mine is not finished yet but when I am finished I will add more pictures.
Placing should be between previous circles

neat idea!! i will have to try this
ReplyDeleteMy son is going to try this for his reuse, renew, and recycle project for school. He's so excited. thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI'm confused on the step for the walls. Do you put the paper around the round object and then add glue to the rest of it and roll it??? I'm going to try doing that but I'm very skeptical about it, because wouldn't you have to hold the paper while rolling it??
ReplyDeleteBut it is a great idea and other than that one part, you did a good job. I'm going to try it even though I might get confused on that part, so thanks!
