    I love this woman. She makes me laugh right out loud. Her tutorials are quick and to the point without a lot of wasted talking like so many other videos of people who just want to hear themselves . . .blah blah blah. Her self-deprecating, sarcasm, down to earth, to the point humor is right up my alley. In the words of Martha Stewart "It's a good thing!"

    Oooo. So old placemats can be used to line the insides. I am officially inspired. The grass mats and fabric make sense to me.
    God bless you! Awesome job.

    I was trying to think of low cost ways to organize my apartment and thought how great it would be to have fabric bins to store sweaters, bed sheets, etc., but I am not about to pay what they cost if I were to buy them. Then I remembered making fabric covered boxes when I was a kid. After watching this video I remember how easy it is to do and plan to make a few of these soon. I think I'll cover the interior of the boxes with self-adhesive contact paper and put a framed label/pull on the front of mine. I might even use some batting to make it soft and padded. I see so many creative possibilities with this idea. Thanks for posting this how-to video!

    This is amazing! I've been trying to make this little box but I couldn't find out how to sew the fabric around the box because all of my friends and all of the artists I've been talking to kept telling me I have to sew the fabric around the box and I was determined to not have to! This is so great, thank you~

    That was the quickest and easiest way of wrapping the box with fabric I've seen so far. That was great, thank you for that. And you're funny, so that's a plus :) A suggestion, instead of using paper inside the box, how about the scrap of fabric you tossed aside earlier. I think that would look pretty too.
    Also, LOVED the fabric!!!

    I have made several of these in the past, which I recently lost due to flooding in my area. I also used furniture upholstery fabric samples; from my local furniture store. Because the fabric samples are typical smaller, I just cut & sewed several pieces together, making a fabric scrap box. If I can figure out how to send attached a photo of mine when I replace them.
    I also, thought I would share a few tips I have learned over the years.
    As I was watching, I noticed your box was caving in a little with the pressure. In order to help the box s from - I took some spare cardboard squares the size of the boxes. I sliced up the middle to the center, criss crossed so they made the letter "X". Then inserted in box. Then apply the fabric to the outside, when finished, remove the "X" and finish with the inside.
    For the middle, I again cut cardboard squares the size of the box, including another one for the bottom, which was also cut a little bit small. I then covered with contrasting fabric.

    I've seen people use spray adhesive so I'm sure that would work just fine. Just make sure to really protect your work area (or maybe even do outside) because spray products go everywhere! I'm still finding residue from the last time I used spray paint!

    1- I’m all for diving into a project, I think that’s the best way to learn things. Even if you botched it (which I don’t think you will) you’re only out a couple bucks. You’ll get your hot glue gun experience pretty fast in this project.

    If you cute a long rectangular strip and iron the ends under you could do the inside, and then cut a square and iron the ends under neatly for the bottom. It would be more work than the paper but I bet it would look beautiful. You could use a contrasting color and it would be even more fun!

      Are you saved? If not, "REPENT YE, AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL."
      THE GOSPEL (which means the Good News) is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. He gave up his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him.
      John 1:1,14
      In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us,
      Isaiah 9:6
      For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
      John 1:10 KJV
      He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT.
      John 20:28-29 KJV
      And Thomas answered and said unto him, MY LORD AND MY GOD. [29] Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
      Are you saved friend? If you died tonight will you go to heaven or hell?
      Acts 16:30-31 KJV
      ...what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
      1 John 1:8-10
      If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. [9] If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. [10] If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
      Luke 24:47
      And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
      Acts 4:12
      Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

    LOVE this!!! Thank you. Making one today. I have tons of card stock. I am wondering if I can use it as the liner.

    3- There are special glue sticks for hot glue guns and they come in different sizes. Some are thinner and some are thicker, I actually have both sizes just to be confusing. I’ve even seen glue sticks at the dollar store which is obviously a great price, just make sure you have lots of whatever size your glue gun takes before you start your project.
    I hope you have a great time and get exactly what you were looking for and couldn’t find in the stores :-)

    this video is a time saver, i was going to sew a few storage boxes for my kids toys but re-purposing old boxed and using my large glue gun will save me a lot of hassle, plus if my kids destroy the box it wont be so bad lol, anyways thanks for your tutorial.

    I should of mentioned...hobby lobby and walmart both sell fabric scraps cheap. They have yardage listed on the scrap. You could also use double sided tape or fabric glue. Fabric glue is also great for glittering fabric if you wanted to monogram or embellish.

    A few other ideas for the inside would be white cardboard or colored cardstock. I'm using leftover sheets. Always save those! Save everything! And I'm putting nothing but an edge of the fabric on the bottom. For my huge boxes, I just cover the front of the box.

      So glad it helped Carol! I've used this technique all over the place. A couple years ago I made custom sized cubbies to fit my family's shoes, and I literally couldn't have purchased a container the right size and it matched my living room theme so it was awesome. Good luck on your project!
