Upcycle a Tissue Box

     I've noticed that tissue companies are putting more eye-catching, colorful patterns on their boxes. Such a shame to just toss them out once they're empty. Perhaps something could be done with the used boxes... maybe mini notebooks?


Supplies:
- Used tissue box with a colorful pattern
- Several sheets of computer paper (you can decide how many pages you want. I used 10 sheets).
- Embroidery floss
- Embroidery needle
- Scissors
