How To Decoupage A Box: Measuring The Paper
Hi! I"m Karen for Expert Village. Okay, now we're going to fit the piece for the inside of the box. You want to place the napkin in there, decide where it's going to fit, and then we'll just trace a line around to cut it out. You don't want to use a felt tip pen because the napkin just absorbs the pen and you'll have a big stain ink thing. Just a gentle pencil because the napkin's very thin. Just a very light pencil mark. Tuck that in there and just tracing all the way around. The napkin just expand a little out with the moisture from the glue, so it's not going to fit exactly exactly. You get that wrinkly effect also. Just trace around and we'll cut it out. I was careful to cut off the writing on the napkin. It has a little bit of a manufacturer's printing on the bottom that I didn't want. Just take that off. Always keep in mind where the front of the box. Remember, this is the bottom of the box. Refit. I fold the wrong line so I need to cut that. Then we can also think about. It's the same size box so we can think about how the top should go on there. Remember there's going to be a space here and a space here from the box edge. I think that looks good. We can put it in on the top like that. We can use this to get the right size. Next, we'll be gluing the napkin in the box.
