Cereal and Paper mashed into one!
Once you know how to make them they are really and easy and don't take as long. But your first go might take you awhile (i know mine did!). Well this has to be simple if I can do it! There are other tutes on here but i didn't want to a big one and just had a brainwave to make a mini one. I'm quite happy how they turned out! =D

Step 1
First of all find your mini cereal box. I have lots but i chose to use the Frosties box! Yum Frosties!
Step 2
Open it up.
Step 3
Cut all the sides off except of the 3 in the middle. Make sure it goes big, little, big.
Step 4
Mark where you are going to put the booklets inside. I have put 6 lines in mine. Make sure they are equel or it will look odd.
Step 5
Then make where you will sew it in. Also make sure that they are equal.
Step 6
Ok this is the longest bit! Grab your pieces of paper and fold it in half.
Step 7
Cut on the fold.
Step 8
Do the same, fold and cut.
Step 9
Fold that piece then that is the size of a page in your book.
Step 10
Do this until you have 10 pages. this is the size of one of the booklets for the book.
Step 11
Keep doing this until you have 6 different booklets.
Step 12
Line the booklet with the line in the cereal box and mark where the 2 vertical lines are. This makes it easier to sew it into the box.
Step 13
Poke a hole in the box and in the booklet where you have marked, so it is easier to get the needle through. Thread the needle and start sewing the paper to the box. It looks better if you start and finish in the middle.
Step 14
When you have done that it should look like the picture. Keep doing it until you have done all of them and...
Step 15
they all look like this!
Step 16
The finished product.
