Instructions
  1. With scissors, cut off the top half of the box and discard it. Then cut the bottom portion of the box in half vertically to create two open-face cases.

  2. Use a pencil to trace around the sides and back of each case onto a piece of colored paper. Cut out the paper tracings and glue them onto the outsides of the cases. Then cut out felt pieces to cover the undersides of the cases and glue them on.

  3. Now decorate the cases to suit their individual tastes with stickers, colored tape, glitter glue or original drawings.
