STEP BY STEP: "Save Your Sandwich"

Materials:

a. gallon milk jug

b. permanent marker

c. scissors

d. thumbtack

e. adhesive velcro

*WATCHING THE VIDEO FOR THIS PROJECT IS ESSENTIAL.*

STEP 1: Starting at the base of the handle of your jug and using a permanent marker, trace your first side flap of the sandwich box (I went to my right, but if tracing left is more comfortable for you, that is fine). You need to mark at about the half length of your jug.

STEP 2: Trace your back flap. This flap is going to mark the next side AND lid of your jug and will be twice as long as your first side flag.

STEP 3: To help measure up to the initial side flag, turn your jug around to the front and trace what will be your front flap just like you did in STEP 1.

STEP 4: Trace your final side flag just as you did in STEP 1 and 3.

STEP 5: Its time to cut! Its easier if you start by cutting out the area of the jug that you won't be using. Then you can cut either along or just below the outline you made with your permanent marker.

STEP 6: Using a thumbtack, tack along the entire fold line of your sandwich box. This makes it easier to fold down and create your sandwich pocket.

STEP 7: Place your scrumptious sandwich into your pocket and with either a thumbtack (or a small circle of adhesive velcro) fasten your little green sandwich box!
