- A speaker (i used an old headphone as speaker, yes i know this doesnt amplify my volume but it was loud enough)

- A box

- A bit off netting ( i used stockings)

- An exacto knife

- A hot glue gun

Tracing

first trace the outline off the speaker to the back side of the box so you know how big to make the cut-out.

The Hole

Cut the hole a bit smaller this makes sure you have edges to glue the speaker itself on later.

The Netting

Glue the piece of netting in the inside of the box. This is pure for looks and not necessary at all.

The Speaker

Glue the speaker in place on the inside of the box. Make sure it's really sturdy so it wont fall off if it gets a nudge.

The Wire

I glued the wire to my box so it would stay in place and not make to much sound if you move the box around

The Finish

To finish it off make a hole in the side to run the jack plug cable trough. This is bassicly it, you can decorate the box however you want after this.
