Use a ruler to measure (cm) out the dimensions of your compartment
Cutting the Inside

Use a craft knife to cut the squares inside. When preparing to glue the Popsicle sticks ensure that they are 0.5 cm apart.
Glue the Popsicle Sticks

This is what it should look like when done.
NOTE: For the top part of the compartment the Popsicle sticks should be glued on the coloured part of the cardboard so that it would be later easier to glue the compartment to the table.
Glue the Compartment Together

This is what the compartment should look like once all glued in place!
Under the Table

Glue the compartment under your table and watch it disappear.
Time to Hide It!
