Materials Needed:
- Cardboard
- Pencil, colored pencils, and markers
- Recycled paper
- Glue
- Brown paper
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cardboard: Cut out three rectangles from cardboard, each measuring 4×6 cm, and two squares, each measuring 4×3.5 cm.
- Design the Box: Find a box design, preferably with an apple theme, in any language you prefer. Draw this design onto the cardboard rectangles and color them to make it look realistic.
- Assemble the Box: Cut out handles on both ends of the rectangles. Glue the edges together to form a small cardboard box.
- Create Apple Shapes: Fold a strip of paper several times. Draw and cut out half-apple shapes from the folded paper to create multiple identical pieces.
- Add Apple Details: Use a red marker to color the edges of the apple shapes, giving them a red apple appearance. Stack the apple halves and glue them along the straight edges. Allow the glue to dry.
- Form the Apple: Once dry, open up the apple shape and glue the ends together to form a small apple.
- Prepare the Box Interior: Crumple a piece of brown paper and place it at the bottom of the cardboard box.
- Fill with Apples: Place several of the paper apples inside the box.
And there you have it—your adorable mini Post-It notes with an apple theme are ready to use!
