Spray Paint

By Gary Boutin

Tools and Supply:
USPS First Class Box (Used)
Spray paint

My library of Art Magazine are spilling over my bookcase and a used USPS Mail will be upcycled thus saving the environment of another cardboard box. 

This post shows the four steps to spray paint the side of a Art Magazine Cardboard Holder. 

Step 1: Fig.1 shows the spray paint that was used to paint the cardboard boxes. Fig.2 shows the fabric has been removed.

Step 2: Fig.3 and fig.4 shows a painted box. All side of this box was painted and placed outside to dry. Do not paint the boxes because it take two days for the paint to dry and two weeks for the order to dissipate.

Step 3: Fig.5 shows the magazine that will be held by this box. Fig.6 shows a top view of the magazines inside the painted cardboard holder.

Step 4: Fig.7 shows the magazine placed in the holder. This project was a failure, because the box had to be placed outside to dry, and even when the dry the box had dried it still smelled of paint. Part 3 will address another box and wrapping this box.
