Paper Mache CD Storage
Submitted by Tani Hughes

This was intended to hold video games in my daughter’s room. She went away to collage and my 16 year old son threw a fit when she was taking it. I’m not sure why, as you can see he hasn’t really moved anything into it yet. Maybe just to be the pain-little-brother to her one last time by insisting it belongs in his room, perhaps he’s secretly sentimental about my work . I used paper towels for a rough stone like look then painted and only used the pretty patterned tissue paper on the inside as an accent (I realized not everyone shares my love of color-chaos). It is made from 4 of the same Priority Mail boxes as the Shoe Organizer only their openings are on the ‘side’ instead of the ‘top’ of each box.
