Step four: When you are done with cutting your 10 strips place 5 strips of paper on the mat next to each other about 2cm apart.


Step five: Grab a strip of paper and weave up and down.


Step six: Repeat step five until you have done.


Step Seven: When step six is finished carefully push the paper strips together until the the inside is a square.


Step eight: Sellotape all the corners to keep the paper in its place.


Step nine: To make the sides of the box. Fold the upsidedown strips back over the base.


Step Ten: Cut 4 strips of paper 24 cm long and 1cm wide.


Step eleven: Take one strip of paper and fold 4 quarters.

Step twelve: Grab the same strip of paper and weave it through the 4 sides you made.


Step thirteen: sellotape the corners to keep that strip srate.


Step fourteen: Then you have to repeat step 12 and 13 for the last three strips of paper that you have left over.


Step fifteen: To finish your awesome box make sure if any strips are poking out go back and fix it it's not a rush just take your time.
