You have 48 crayons. You need one. Obviously, the one that’s missing.
The navy blue one is under the cupboard. Red has been chewed and doesn’t want to talk about it. Yellow is lying shamelessly in plain sight, but of course yellow is not the one you need.
And inspiration?
Inspiration doesn’t have time for this.
Inspiration has a schedule.
The schedule has a deadline.
Deadlines have no feelings.
So the shipping box gets a position. The crayons do too.
Not for the sake of order.
For the sake of art.
Cardboard with a past. Now working in organisation.
This template is designed for cardboard 3–4 mm thick. Most cardboard boxes from online deliveries will do the job nicely. You’ll also need glue, a craft knife and a metal ruler. Click the images below to download the two-part template. Then print both parts on the blank side of used office paper.
2-part template – wide box
you need a piece of cardboard 55 cm x 25 cm
2-part template – narrow box
you need a piece of cardboard 45 cm x 25 cm
Mount the shape of the pencil box on your cardboard as shown in the picture below. If you are recycling the cardboard, try to use the fold lines you already have and align them to the dashed lines on your mounted shape.
With the help of the ruler, cut all the black lines. Be accurate. Don’t let your eyes be misled – no polygon has the same width or hight here. Place the ruler on the drawing when possible, so that if your blade slips, it will cut into the waste card around the outside of the drawing. Fold all the dashed lines. Before folding, make a crease – a scalpel or craft knife is an excellent tool for this.
Now, the way this pencil holder works is quite simple. And yet, quite extremely radical as well – You need two screws in the wall, a wooden bar fixed with those screws, your cardboard boxes on this bar and finally pencils in the boxes. Just in case you haven’t yet, we suggest you buy a wall bar. Oh, and of course, feel free to share your Instastyle using #kokimiloki.
