Make these locker organizers with free shipping boxes from the post office. All you need is a little multi-surface paint and some stick on gems.

Step 1

You'll need:
Print out of constellations
Americana Multi Surface Satin Paint in Black Tie
Paintbrush
Priority shipping boxes from the post office (or recycled)
Glue
Stick-on gems
Krylon Short Cuts in Silver or Gold metallic
Ruler
Craft knife

Step 2

Assemble the box
Draw a line from corner to corner with a pencil
Intersect the line 3 1/2" up from the base of the box on each side
Draw a curve where the lines intersect on each side
Repeat on the other side
Connect the 3 1/2" lines on the sides of the box

Step 3

Cut along the lines with a craft knife
*This will give you two organizers
Cut an extra piece of cardboard 3 1/2" by the width of your box plus 3"
Score 1 1/2" in on each side and bend to create flaps
Glue the flaps to the inside of the mouth of the box to create an area for pencils

Step 4

Paint the entire box with Americana Multi-Surface Satin Paint in Black Tie
When dry, lightly draw your constellations in pencil
Mark over the lines with a silver Krylon Short Cuts metallic paint marker
Connect the lines with stick-on rhinestones

Step 5

Make hundreds of dots with the metallic paint pen to create the night sky

Step 6

Print this out in gray scale on your computer to save ink.
