Miniature Book Shelf

Add customized furniture for your miniature bedroom by cutting and gluing box pieces together.

Materials Needed

Young kids (3 to 8 years) should use child-safe scissors.
Keep the stapler out of children's reach.
Watch out for this sign . It means an adult's help is needed for the particular step.

	1.	Find a suitable-sized box for the book shelf. A coffee box or tea box will do.
	2.	Cut the box lengthwise in half. Staple any open flaps on both pieces.
	3.	Mark a line about ¼ inches from the top of one of the box halves. Cut along the line. The trimmed off piece will serve as one of the shelves.
	4.	Do the same with the opposite end of the box to make a second shelf.
	5.	Use glue gun to attach the two shelves onto the other box half. Apply glue gun adhesive along the three sides of each shelf piece.
	6.	You've just finished constructing the book shelf. Click here to go back to the Miniature Bedroom craft.
