I made this storage contraption using 8 empty boxes of Felix cat food which I joined together to make one large printers style tray. My biggest shelf to date!
Step 1: I cut all the boxes down to a 2″ height and then used masking tape to stick all the boxes together:
Step 2: I glued on torn book papers all over the boxes both front and back and left it to air dry naturally for a week:
Step 3: Once dry I painted it with a wash of white gesso, then I watered down some green acrylic paint to give it a thin coating on the inside of the boxes.
The outside was painted with burgundy tan acrylic paint that I mixed myself by combining 2 colours together. Once it was dry I then stencilled on the outside of the frame with a bright green colour acrylic paint.
Now I need to decide what to store on it! Any suggestions?
