What you need:

  • Shoebox
  • Cardboard
  • Orange cup
  • 4 wood skewers
  • Tape
  • Hot glue gun
  • Scissors
  • Printed Curio Shop sign
  • Brown paint
  • Marker
  • White paper
  • Glue

What you do:

  1. Paint the shoebox with the brown paint, let dry before moving on to the next spot.
  2. Next, cut out of cardboard an 8” x 6” rectangle and a 6” x 3” rectangle.
  3. Cut out of white paper a rectangle large enough to wrap around ½ of the orange cup. Then write “TIPS” with any color marker and tape to orange cup.
  4. Tape each wooden skewer to each the back corners of the shoebox.
  5. Glue the Curior Shop sign onto the 8” x 6” rectangle piece of cardboard.  Stick 2 wood skewers through the top corners of the sign. Tape to secure.
  6. Having an adult help you, hot glue the wood skewers attached to the sign to the tops of the wood skewers attached to the shoebox.
  7. Fold a half inch down on the 6” x 3” rectangle. Hot glue the folder part to the front of the shoebox to make the counter. When dry, place the “TIPS” cup on the counter.

Do you have a great idea for a craft, recipe or party game? We’d love to hear them!
