Tool checklist

• pencil
• glue stick
• ruler
• Punch pliers
• scissors

First of all, the egg box itself has to be tidied up. You can either buy colored egg boxes or paint the normal boxes from the supermarket. The banderole with which the egg carton is stuck works in principle like the stickers that adorn the cartons in stores - only in pretty! To do this, first make a template out of white paper, on which you draw the holes for the closure exactly. Now it's very quick: transfer the template, cut out the banderole and finally glue it onto the cardboard.
