Cassette Tapes Pencil Box

I used to record a lot of songs on cassete tapes back in the late 80s / early 90s. It all changed when I bought my first CD recorder in 1997. I never get rid of the tapes, but I'll never listen to them again, I'm sure. So I decided to have a little fun, recycling them into a pencil box, thus honoring the great moments I had listening to these tapes in the old days.

I started with a carton box. I cut a square from it (7,5 x 7,5 cm).

I reinforced the square with some scraps of adhesive paper, and then glued a picture of a Joaquín Torres García painting. This is the bottom of the box.

Using a universal instant adhesive liquid, I pasted the tapes to each other.

Just keep pasting.

Almost done!

Finally, I glued the four tapes over the cardboard base.

Just 15 minutes of easy work.
