I wanted a way to organize and store the specialty scissors used for trimming paper for scrap booking and other projects. I came up with the idea presented here.

Approximate Time: 1 to 2 hours
Supplies:
recyclable corrugated cardboard
cutting tools (craft knife, box cutter)
band saw
glue
cardstock
decorative elements
Instructions:
First, cut corrugated cardboard into 4x4 inch squares.
Use band saw if available, if not, use craft/box knife.
Cut as many pieces as you need. My project required 3 pieces for each scissor, plus 2 end pieces.
Glue pieces together with white glue. I added 4x4in. pieces of cardstock between every third piece as separators.

Place end pieces on cube, then add weight to the cube and let dry for a few hours.
Decorate the cube if desired, use colored paper, cloth, collage pictures from magazines, etc.
