making a tissue box tardis

Cover the tissue box hole with cardboard. Cut the front doors. Paint the box blue. Find a picture of the tardis and print out the windows and other bits, then stick on. The light on top is a bit tricky. I used a Jurlique lid and some blue cardboard but you could easily make a little cardboard light. LittleSquib did all the painting and the sticking. This was a very easy and quick project

    I’ve got her an interview here at work - good hourly rate too…!

    With skills like that she should be able to improve the Gas Platform design .

    lol

    I was thinking exactly the same thing in the process of making it PR!

    MrS she’s not very happy with it today, she doesn’t like the light I made

    Hmmm.

    I see a Dr Who, a dalek and The Tardis all nicely composed but La Tour D’Eiffel in the background would have rounded the picture nicely.

    Hmmm but the scale could be all wrong?

    Scale? What scale?

    Nothing is to scale in the 11th Dimension.

    :-)

    OK you got me. I’ll see if the tardis comes back in one piece from school and I’ll take a ‘Dalek Invasion of Paris’ shot

    Great pantomime material -

    Hi Rob, I see you’re from SA. We’re probably cousins in that case because I have half a million relatives in that state alone

    I thought SA = Sud Afreeka…?

    That could have won the ‘Judgement of Paris’.

    ah oui !
    :wink:

    Excellent idea. Have you considered working the idea backwads, make a TARDIS into a tissue box? See the link.

    Very nifty!

    Have you submitted that to Boing Boing?
