FR Presents: How To Cover a Box with Fabric to Create a Custom Container

[@bobbipipkorn5138]

Thank you for such a precise tutorial and for not stuffing the corners in all sloppy like a lot of the other videos I see. One safety note for the average KZbin viewer: please use caution if using a flame to melt frays as spray glues are highly flammable. Still one of the best videos out there. Thank you!

[@MrZachendricks]

Thank you sir for your very helpful tip. It was JUST what the doctor ordered. All the best!!!

[@zoomcat54]

I have been wanting to cover boxes with fabric but none of the tutorials I found helped like this one did. Just did my first box according to your instructions and it turned out perfectly! Thanks!

[@rongablue]

Absolutely fabulous! So clear to understand, thank you.

[@Elmelati]

Just what I need! I have many small boxes to wrap up and now I know how to do it. Thank you so much! Great tutorial!

[@vickijackson5547]

Wow - that is perfect! I am kinda of a perfectionist and I've never tried to cover a box because I wasn't sure how to do it without getting all the bulk around the corners and stuff. This is great! I am looking forward to trying it now!

[@sewnana3]

So glad I found this video. Just getting ready to cover some boxes and this works with paper as well as fabric.

[@dawnmarieleonard9137]

thank you for the cutting process. i wasn't sure how to make the corners so neat. ..

[@FloristsReview]

Hi TheCurlygurly14! Most craft stores sell spray adhesive, and some discount stores may also have it in their craft section. There are several brands but all seem to work basically the same way. Best of luck with your projects, and thank you for watching our videos!

[@yvonnedavey8833]

I need to cover some boxes for a jewellery craft stall and this was extremely helpful, many thanks.

[@shirleyann1901]

Great tutorial

[@janestewart3231]

I have a metal tissue box holder that shows fingerprints like crazy! I'm going to use this method to cover it instead. I'll start with the top piece and starburst cut inside the oval opening to be able to fold those pieces inward to seal the opening. Then I'll move to your exaggerated plus sign with the two opposite sides wider for wrapping around the corners first. A suggestion...show what you're marking with a colored, disappearing seamstress' marker. I couldn't tell what you were doing until after the oversized plus was cut out. Thanks for sharing.

[@FloristsReview]

Excellent question! You could use a vase, if you can find one that fits snugly. If not, find a vase that's close in size, and add tissue paper between the vase and the box to stabilize the vase. Another option is a plastic liner; they're available in round and square and in varying sizes. Thanks for watching our videos!

[@tourjoursv]

Amazing tutorial. Thanks for sharing

[@sf75]

[@yinbangji2701]

Your video is very good. I am a Chinese manufacturer of printing paper packaging products. Thank you for your sharing in your video

[@FloristsReview]

Thank you for your kind words! Glad we could help!

[@luciarobles7680]

Thanks I made two with boxes I already had :-) one was a feminine pad box lol hey those cost a lot finally good use, and the other was pasta boxes! Thank you so much for such an awesome idea!

[@michelletyson4162]

excellent video, so helpful!

[@kareneverman3603]

Thank you for the very helpful video.

[@vns6935]

Neat 👍 Loved your idea. And love florals 😊 So, winning combo. Please complete the process with a tutorial on how to line the inside of the box with minimum joints showing. Thanks !

[@didarden]

I can make my 🐱 a bed! ☺ im gonna get a soft quilt and a pillow from garage sales.

[@FloristsReview]

Thank you for your kind words zoomcat54! We are glad it was helpful!

[@snm6004]

Very good ideas Thank for VDO

[@milkdroptattoo]

This was very helpful! So clear easy to follow! If I want to have an arrangement inside, what can I do to keep the box from getting soggy?

[@ShoppingQueenArlene]

Great video well done and thanks!

[@FloristsReview]

Our pleasure! Thank you for tuning in!

[@mariemmomtaz1711]

i loved it..thank you

[@RT-id3ub]

Very lovely

[@FloristsReview]

Latoya, thank you for viewing our video! The procedure for covering the lid is the same, but, obviously, you will need less fabric for that, since the sides of the lid are short. I hope that helps!

[@ceeloflo]

Talmadge, Love your how-to on this. Do find find it best to use a square vase inside the box or do you find a liner can work?

[@TheCurlygurly14]

Great video! I really want to try this Where can I find the spray adhesive glue?

[@alynneholland7694]

Do you have any tutorials on how to cover round boxes? Thanks.

[@wmnoffaith1]

Hi!! Just found your video. I have many different patterns of cloth, so looking forward to trying this. Just a question: I'm sure you work with some expensive and/or rare sorts of flowers, as well as daisies or carnations ( what I can envision putting in a cotton print box). If you were going to use orchids, lilies of the valley, roses, etc, have you tried covering a box with silk, satin, or velvet? Or any upscale fabric? Is the adhesive process the same? Or will the spray adhesive just soak through the fabric and ruin it? I wanted to ask before, I try the material and ruin it. Thank you in advance for answering. I know this video is severely years old.

[@FloristsReview]

Happy to help! :)

[@leesalsr]

Hi what is the name of the spray that your using .

[@FloristsReview]

I'm so glad it's useful to you!

[@kimholloway8095]

Where did you get the box?

[@FloristsReview]

Hi ceeloflo, A liner can work fine, as long as it is sturdy and fits well. Thanks for watching!

[@prncfrk]

Nice

[@karendaley2415]

where did you find your box.....great video, thanks.

[@FloristsReview]

Thank you for your positive comment, Karen! Boxes such as these should be available in most crafts stores. If you make your own, please share your results on our Facebook page here: url.frinfo.net/3

[@romeliapolly2520]

Im sure you can build it too guys. Just look for Woodprix page

[@antonshkabara3090]

Woodglut is nice for that.

[@sherrylkeith9695]

very detailed plans for that I found on stodoys.

[@pierluigicolotto9570]

I did something like this a month ago with plans from Woodglut.

[@Ghostee61]

It was hard to see how he measured out the template....camera shot too far away to see the pencil line he was drawing.

[@rollingthunder4599]

I would measure the box first, then buy the fabric. That way you won't get too much fabric, or not enough.

[@Ntagati]

Lovely tutorial but couldn't hear your voice over the loud music. 😊

[@kimholloway8095]

We can’t see what you are doing. 😩

[@tonyacampbell4903]

Wish you had a screen shot looking down. It’s not clear what you are doing. Also using a plain color would be better

[@mrsclaude1741]

Am I only one that can't hear him

[@tinapriestley7282]

The volume isn't very clear. The music drowns your voice!

[@Ivan_Hoh]

this sucks
