My friend Glowwy went to Michael's and saw this little wooden coffin box and got it for me. I also had an empty Pocky box lying around that I was hoping to make into a pencil case, so I just decided to combine the two =)

You Will Need (5 things)
- 1 Craft Coffin Box
- 1 Pocky Box
- 1 Paint In any colors you need them
- 1 Scissors
- 1 Glue
Steps (6 steps, 60 minutes)
-
1
Get a craft coffin box (from Michael's or Joann's or any other craft store) and go out and eat some Pocky and save the box!
-
2
Carefully open up all the edges on the pocky box.
-
3
Make a paper template (I just traced around my coffin box). Hopefully yours comes out better then mine did ;)

Trace your template over your Pocky box, and cut it out. Then place over your coffin box and glue. I quickly figured out that elmer's glue wasn't the best so I took my glue gun out (it was the only other glue I had). Cut off any excess cardboard with an xacto knife.
**I suggest you paint the box a "background" color before gluing anything on it.

Repeat this step for the back of the coffin. I used the scraps I had to cover up big gaps (like a mosaic), and when I ran out of scraps from the Pocky box, I painted the box (which I should have done to begin with, see previous step).

I added a coat of TripleThick to make it shiny, and also to protect from spills. Then just paint the inside, or add fabric, and you're all done!
Ta-da!
