Candy Wrapper Wallet

Hello! Today I made another project. This project is inspired by a video from Youtube made by SoCraftastic. The project is based on how to make a candy wrapper wallet. Although she used Starbust candy wrappers, I used Judge gum candy wrappers. I was not able to video myself doing it, so I was not able to upload a Youtube video about it, but here is a step by step tutorial of it with pictures.

MATERIALS:

• Card (credit card)
• bills
• tape (the big kind)
• candy wrappers (loads of them)
• decorative materials
• clear plastic (OPTIONAL)

STEPS:

1. Eat as much candies as you can or you can share them with your friends.
2. Get your tape and cut a strip that is four inches longer than your bill. Make three of this and stick them all together (all sticky side up)
3. Put the wrappers on top of the stickyng tape design side up. It is ok to overlap the candy wrappers because we will place a layer of tape over the design anyway. Do this until no sticky parts is seen.
4. You will see that your wrappers are not exactly align to your tape. Just cut the extra parts off.
5. Then tape the design side so it is glossy too.
6. Repeat steps 2 to 5. Then cut 1 centimeter from the top of this layer.
7. Now you have two, but one smaller. Align them so that the bigger one is at the bottom and the smaller one on the top. (The smaller one design side up and bigger one design side down.)
8. You will see a blank white space over the smaler one because it is not design with candy wrappers. You will have to coat that part with candy wrappers and tape.
9. Then tape both of the pieces together.
10. Add card slots by making one big paper made of tape and candy wrappers again. Then cut it to the right size and layer it up. Make sure to leave space at the top, so the card will have some allowance. I only have to card slots because three won't fit.
11. Then add a transparent window by taping strips of candy wrappers on the side of a clear plastic to make as borders and tape the whole piece to the wallet.  Or you can make a transparent window using your tape. Just Stick both sticky sides together.
12. Then beautify your work.

TIP:

• BE CAREFUL ON TAPING THE THINGS DOWN. THE WRAPPERS CAN CRUMPLE EASILY AND THE TAPE CAN STICK TO EACH OTHER EASILY TOO. I learned it the hard way.
