Locker Pockets
- Total Time Needed:
- 1 Hour
These simple magnetic foam envelopes are great for storing assorted school supplies and CDs.
- Materials
-
- Craft foam
- Craft scissors or pinking shears
- Packing tape
- Craft glue
- Small craft foam flowers and geometric shapes (sold by the package in many craft stores)
- Brass paper fastener
- 2 strong magnets
- Instructions
-
-
Cut a 9-inch square from the craft foam, using craft scissors or pinking shears to create a decorative edge.
-
Place the square on a flat surface and fold 2 opposite corners to the center, as shown. Fold up the lower corner so the edges slightly overlap the side flaps. While pinching the 3 folded flaps together with one hand, secure them from the inside of the pocket with packing tape. -
Apply glue between the overlapped edges and place a heavy book on top of the envelope to keep them flat while they're drying.
-
When the glue is dry, attach decorative foam shapes to the front of the envelope with a brass fastener. -
Glue the magnets to the back of the envelope, one at the top and one at the bottom, and let the glue dry completely before packing the pouch.
