Wow, who knew that cardboard can be so cute? One of the best things about this craft is that you can use something that we throw away almost every single day. We always have cardboard laying around the house from Amazon packages to cereal boxes, diaper boxes, and more. That means you already have some of the supplies, which also makes this a pretty inexpensive craft to make, too. It doesn’t get much better than that!
