DIY: Fabric Covered Boxes

Above my front door there is a large empty space that had been begging for a little color. I've done fabric covered canvases and thought maybe I could pull off the same look if I cut up my big Home depot boxes that were just sitting in my basement waiting for their re- purpose assignment.

First: Cut box using the fold lines as your guide.

Second: Measure, so you''ll now how much fabric you'll need.

Third: I ended up taping a couple pieces of cardboard together for a bit more dimension

 Fourth: Cut out fabric and iron. Don's skip the iron step.

 Fifth: Fold the fabric around the cardboard and staple it down. I just used a normal stapler.

 Sixth: Hang up with Command Strips. (kind of a crooked picture, but you get the idea.)

I purchased the fabric from My Girlfriends Quilt Shop.
