MacGyver fixes for pesky too tall Tissue boxes

You know the ones, I name no names. But the tissues start falling back into the box as they are used and this gets very VERY annoying, to say the least! So, here, in pictures is the fix I've created. It's not too hard and we all love glue, scissors and magic mending tape in these troubled times. Ahem....

The box, open it on the end, remove and carefully set aside the tissues...

Flatten the box, not with your foot or a baseball bat, but gently open it at the ends and side seam. Think of this as a dress alteration. Easy Does It. Draw nice straight lines at the approximate center down the two sides along the "window".  Cut along these lines and that seam allowance on the left there will be glued back onto the box next.



Glue the seamed side back onto to where it was in the first place

Like so...

  2. Hiya PJ.

    Well, truth be told, it can be blamed on my inability to figure out the way to get things to appear in proper order.

    The next thing to try is "save a draft" and then publish posts in the right "top down" order. I have a feeling it won't work so never tried it. The time stamp will foil attempts at that, but I will try!

    Also, Google won't let more than four photos be published, per post. I've tried tricking it but it's just to darn smart for me. ;o)
