What we used:
- 2 Empty Oatmeal Containers (42oz)
- Hot Pink Plastic Tablecloth
- Old Shopkins toy boxes
- Floral Wire
- X-ACTO Box Cutter
- Sharpie Marker
- Hot Glue Gun
Instructions:
- Glue lid to secure it to your oatmeal containers.
- Take your oatmeal container and draw a rectangle 1 in from the top edge, and 1in from the bottom edge of your container (see picture below). The dimensions should be 2.5in x 6.5in.
- Use box cutter to cut the rectangle out.
- Once rectangle is cut out, roll entire container in pink table cloth, cutting off any excess (you can also wrap container before cutting out the opening, but I didn’t think to do it until after. Haha.) Locate the opening you cut out of your oatmeal container, and cut out the tablecloth from that space.
- Fold excess tablecloth around opening into the container, and secure with hot glue for a more tidier appearance.
- Fold and glue excess tablecloth hanging off the ends of the container.
- Cut off Shopkins logo, and other images you choose, from a Shopkins cardboard box, and decorate box as you please..
- Repeat with second oatmeal container.
- Once both containers are complete and decorated, cut slits into both ends for you to thread floral wire through to connect.
- Make sure you cut off enough floral wire to connect both containers, in addition to having an arch fit for hanging. You will need to twist the floral wire in a knot at each end of each container to secure it. I suggest that you thread the containers together first on one side, arch your wire, then thread through the other side.
- Now you can hang, and drop those Shopkins in! 🙂
