Reinforced Cardboard Food Boxes

3/11/2014

4 Comments

 
For Christmas, I gave my child some fake food to go with a little shopping cart she had adored at the store. Along with the plastic fruit and veggies came some small cardboard food boxes. I knew the second I saw these that it would be a matter of days for these little cartons to hit the trash because they would quickly get squished and torn up. To prevent this inevitable fate, I reinforced the boxes with cardboard and laminated them with packing tape. Truth be told, this is an activity to do while watching a show or something because it is a little time consuming.
Kit's Crafts - Reinforced Cardboard Food Boxes
Materials:
Fake Food Boxes
Cardboard
Craft Knife or Scissors
Glue Gun/Glue Sticks
Packing Tape (optional)

Directions:
1.Use your fake food box to determine the width of your cardboard fillers, then cut strips of cardboard at that width, then, cut rectangles from the strip at the same length as the box. 
2. Once you have enough rectangles to fill the box, use the glue gun to stick the pieces together. 
3. Put the stack of glued cardboard inside the box then put some glue on the end of the cardboard stack and close the box, gluing the end shut. Repeat for the other end.
To further the lasting ability of these boxes, you can laminate the exteriors by wrapping them with a layer of packing tape.
