3/18/2015 0 Comments Dr Who party: gift box TardisIf you could find a perfectly rectangle box, you could just gussy it right on up to make a tardis, but I had to make my own. They came out a little wonky, but it's just a novelty to pass out to a kid who's gonna toss it. I weighed everything down with books until dry. Then I folded the boxes up to paint them. I did several layers of paint to give it a dimensional look, using light blue, royal blue, and purple. Once they were dry I laid them flat again. I copied the parts of the Tardis I wanted to print and paste, and made enough "police box" strips to cover all four sides of each box. Using a sharpie, I roughly drew boxes and lines for details on the door (3 instead of 4 so I didn't have to scrunch). Once I glued all the strips and posters and windows on, I weighed it down with books again until dry. Then I glued and taped the bottom flap in so it would be stable. I doubt anyone needs the step by step, so I'm not really putting much thought into what I've written. BUT AREN'T THEY PRETTY?? 💓😇😍😘💗 They turned out better than I would have guessed. We stuffed them with stickers, rubber balls, laser fingers, glow sticks. I made a little "journal of impossible things" for each one, which was totally under appreciated. Lol
