Boat Container for Stationary

Assalaamu alaykum

everyone!

Here's a nice stationary container made into a boat. 

I made it using card, paper and toilet roll tubes.

Materials you will need:

3 toilet roll tubes

2 different coloured acrylic paint

Silver paper

Blue paper

White paper

Empty cereal box

Scissors

Glue

Ruler

Pencil

Paintbrush

Stapler

 

 

Firstly, you need to make the shape of your boat. See the way I scored the lines

on the cereal box below. Once you have done that, cut it out carefully.

This is what it should look like.

Cut out two strips of white paper.

Flip the shape over and glue the strips to the ends like so.

Cut out the inside shape out of blue paper and glue it to the box like I

have shown  below.

 

Join both sides of the box exactly, then staple them together.

You can see the boat formed now.

Then paint the tubes of toilet rolls in the colours you prefer,

I used yellow and red and pasted silver paper around the third one.

Glue them together.

Glue and place the three tubes into the boat.

I cut out circles from the white paper for porthole windows.

Once made, start storing your stationary in it!!

Will make a nice handmade gift aswell!

Wasalaam

An Eid Mubarak banner

~*~ Assalaamu alaykum! ~*~

This banner was from our last eid.

It was made from coloured card. Some were cut

into triangles and some into circles. The letters were written

on the circles by hand, then glued to the triangles.

The triangles were then stapled to a paper ribbon, the type

you use to wrap presents with.

Here's a close up of one of the triangles for a better view.

We also stuck tiny sticker stars on the wall around the banner.

Hope you like it!

Cereal box Car

Sorry for the delay, but alhamdulillah we are back!

We made a car for our dolls out of two small cereal boxes.

We glued them together, painted them, then the back box was cut enough so

a doll could fit inside and we left space for the boot. For the front part

of the car we left enough space for the bonnet and cut 3 sides

of the top of the box then flipped the piece upright so it

would be able to represent the window. We then cut out a middle

section of the flap and attached a piece of plastic for the glass.

If you look at the pics, you'll understand better. We took some pics

as we were making it up but they weren't very clear.

Hope you enjoy the car, it's actually really cool mashaAllah!

We made the tyres out of cardboard.

Checking out the boot.

The steering wheel is also cardboard.

Vroom, vroooooooom!!!!!

Our dollies boutique

Assalaamu alaykum!

The are back after the Eid break.

We want to show you a boutique we finished yesterday.

The base is an old jigsaw box, the windows are what our little sister's cardboard

dominoes were stuck to, the cash register is a printable we found online.

We named the shop after Zainab. So welcome to Zainab's Boutique!

  There are two customers, Poppy and Rose, already in the shop.

One is looking at shoes, the other at dresses.

 Here's Poppy trying on a pair of shoes.

The shop assistant Blossom, is helping her.

 Look how nice the shop layout looks from above mashaAllah.

The dresses and shoes were spare ones which came with the dolls.

The changing room is made out of a cardboard box which one of

the dolls came in. The mirror is a real mirror from an old purse.

The curtain is an origami paper we folded like you fold a paper fan.

Then at the top we punched a several holes to put a ribbon through it.

This ribbon was then stuck to the box.

Rose is now going to try on a dress.

 The bags are also printables we got from a miniture dollshouse

printables site. http://www.jensprintables2.com/giftbagsmenu.htm

Poppy is buying herself the shoes!

Both Poppy and Rose have had fun shopping at Zainab's Boutique.
