You can make interesting and useful souvenirs from the simplest things with your own hands. A wooden napkin box is an example of such a useful work of imagination of needlewomen.
To make this or a similar box from a wooden napkin, you will need a small cardboard box (or a piece of thick cardboard from which you can make a box), a napkin made of wooden slats or a bamboo napkin, a piece of cloth or thick colored paper to decorate the inside of the box, other materials for decoration (beads, ribbons, braid, buttons, etc., if desired), a heat gun or other glue for working with cardboard, wood, fabric, scissors, a button or a button, or "burdock" for fastening.
How to work: first, you should glue the inside of the box with a cloth or decorative paper (velvet paper will look very good). After that, we cut out a strip of such length from a wooden napkin to wrap the box completely with a small margin. A fastener will need to be sewn onto the free part of the napkin. To decorate the sidewalls of the box, you need to cut out rectangles that are suitable in size from the remains of a wooden napkin. To mask the cut edges of the wooden napkin, glue some pretty tape on each side.
Decorate such a box to your liking - for example, you can stick a picture for decoupage or sew on beads, beads. To make the box last longer, cover it with acrylic varnish.
Helpful hint: this box can be used as a gift wrapping. It will surely be preserved and used for storing little things and jewelry.
