A tastful coffin box!
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 =)

  • How to make a coffin shaped box. Pocky Coffin Box - Step 1
    Step 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!

    Step 2

    Carefully open up all the edges on the pocky box.

    Step 3

    Make a paper template (I just traced around my coffin box). Hopefully yours comes out better then mine did ;)

    Step 4

    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.

    Step 5

    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).

    Step 6

    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!

I had no idea they sold mini wooden coffins at craft supply stores! Saves time from not having to make them from scratch
