How Do You Make A Homemade “Piggy” Bank?
• Find a box that is at largest 9 in. by 9 in. or a sterile and empty container with a lid (Ziploc containers work excellently if you don’t want to decorate them). It is not recommended that you use the large box that your brand new plasma screen TV came in. • Cut a slit in the very middle of the box/container lid. If that isn’t possible, get really close to the middle. Remember that if you want to be precise and accurate, “Measure twice before cutting”. If you want to wait after decorating, be my guest but be reminded that you must make sure that the slit won’t cut into a decoration you don’t want it to cut into. • Decorating comes in now. Be creative! If you have wallpaper, wrapping paper, or construction paper that you want to wrap around your box/container, do it. Make sure that if you are going to wrap your container that you wrap the lid and container separately. IF YOU ARE CUTTING A SLIT IN THE DECORATING PAPER NOW, MAKE SURE THAT THE SLIT IN THE BOX AND PAPER ARE ALIGNED BEFORE
