Upcycling a coffee cup sleeve
In the last issue of ReadyMade Magazine, there's the new MacGyver Challenge. It's about upcycling a coffee cup sleeve. Since I have heard about this challenge, there were only one thing I could think about that is easy to make.....An other Ipad holder !!!! Please don't think I am a monomaniac with only one think in mind (beside upcycling) but this holder was the obvious project, made for a coffee cup sleeve.
The tool needed:
Almost nothing beside a razor blade and a pencil/ruler
The material:
Almost nothing beside having an Ipad to test it...
The cost:
The price of 2 cups of coffee :-) I don't drink so much coffee, so yesterday I went to the coffee place and took 4 sleeves to give it a try and left right away. I don't know if somebody saw me but they might have thought I was crazy.
The Result:
How to make it:
You need 2 coffee cup sleeves and follow the schematic:
 |
| You have to cut through the 2 layers (front and back) |
 |
| As you can see, Front and back have different cutting patterns |
Conclusion:
- It's posted on readyMade website, please come and say you like it... if you do ;-)
- It's also possible to use only one sleeve, and it's almost as stable and sturdy than 2 sleeves:
