Instructions
  1. Place cardboard box on a cutting mat. Using a ruler and pencil, draw three sides of a square on your box lid leaving about an 1 ¼” border from the edge of the box around the square. The fourth side of the square is the hinge of the box.
  2. Use a box cutter to cut the three sides of the square, leaving the hinged side attached.
  3. Fold the flap back so it stands up when the box lid is closed.
  4. With double sided tape and aluminum foil, line the lid flap with the shiny side of the foil facing out. Smooth out foil and trim any excess with scissors.
  5. Line the entire interior of the box with foil, adhering the edges with double sided tape. Smooth out and trim excess with scissors.
  6. While box lid is open, place double-sided tape around the perimeter of the cut flap inside the box lid. Stretch cling wrap and adhere to close the off the lid hole.
  7. Repeat with cling wrap on the top of lid, giving the hole a double layer.
  8. Hot glue wooden knobs to the front flap of box lid.
  9. Place snores inside box and bake in the sun.
