First, ensure the container is clean, then start gluing the torn book page on the interior, and decorate it with the journal decor pieces or stickers however you want. Once the glue dries which doesn’t take too long, you can start to use it as a wallet for your jewelry, lip gloss, or even your headset, whatever it is that would fit in the wallet.
