100+ days in lockdown mixed with weekly Hello Fresh deliveries and an unheathly 3 in the morning online shopping addiction, has resulted in an abundance of cardboard boxes. With limited rubbish removals I have literally become the queen of cardboard box crafting. Pinterest has become my new best friend for inspiration. Sebastian couldn’t actually give a sh*t with helping me with my ‘cool mum’ lockdown activities but even if ‘said cardboard creation gives me 5 minutes peace to drink a hot coffee then I’m HAPPY.

So here’s what “we” created with our empty cardboard boxes.

My Grade B in GCSE art has certainly payed off.

I’ve created a hashtag over on Instagram #imadethisfromacardboardbox and I would love for you to use it and share your lockdown empty cardboard box creations!
