Scrappy Caddy







Sandy at Fiskateers shared this quick, easy and cute caddy. The instructions are: 1. Score a 12X12 sheet of cardstock at 4 inches and 8 inches, turn and score again the opposite direction at 4 and 8 inches. Your cardstock is now scored into 9 squares. 2. Score the corner squares diagonally, from point towards center of the paper. Cut eight 3 3/4 inch squares of the same patterned paper or coordinating, then cut four of the squares diagonally into triangle. 4. adhere the paper to cardstock as shown in the photo above, leave center square blank. (I then spray with clear gloss paint) 5. Poke holes in each of the four points, embellish as desired. 6. Fold on all scored lines and fold up, folding diagonally scored squares with crease toward center. 7. Thread one length of ribbon through two points diagonally across caddy. Thread other the opposite direction. Hold together and tie in a bow.

I made these last year and filled them with candy for teacher gifts for Halloween, I would never have thought to use them for scrap supplies! :-)
