If you want a colourful box, you need to paint the Popsicles before starting. Here I am not painting it, I am just making a plain one.
Keep two Popsicle sticks parallel. Apply some glue on both ends of the sticks. On both corners of the sticks, place another two sticks, so that you will get a square shape. Now line up the Popsicles on the bottom sticks as if you are filling the square shape.
On the top and base sides of this shape, stick two or more sticks. Continue to stick two sticks alternatively until you reach the square shape as you see here. Wait for it to dry.
For making the lid, follow the same procedure that you did for making the base of the box. Place two sticks parallel. On both ends of the sticks, place another two sticks parallel to make the square shape. Now fill the square shape by sticking the Popsicle sticks.
To decorate the lid, glue two beads on top of it.
You can use it as a jewellery box or store box to keep your tiny toys. You can also present it as a gift to your friends. So don't forget to try it out.
