Juice Carton Pencil Case

So, half way through my first term my pencil case packed up, a sizeable hole meant that my pens kept escaping into my bag which was a bit of a pain. Most people would have bitten the bullet and purchased a whole new pencil case, but not me; I don't study engineering for nothing, you know!

Get the Stuff

Not many supplies needed here. I took the zip off the old pencil case and the orange juice carton out of the recycling. As far as tools are concerned, I used a Stanley knife and my trusty glue gun, but scissors and strong glue would probably do the trick. Oh, also a pen and a ruler.

Make the Cut

Trace a line around the edge of the carton then cut it with the knife, remember to leave one edge for the hinge part.

Glue on the Zip

Glue on the zip. Sorted.
