File folder upcycling folder Marabu GREEN alkyd paint

How it is done:

• First, cover the work area well and prepare the work materials. Clean the folder if necessary. It should be clean, dry and free of grease.
• In the first step, remove the metal brackets inside the folder. Then lay the folder flat on a colored photo cardboard. Mark the outline and the individual areas with a pencil on the photo cardboard.
• Then cut out the marked areas. Use the GREEN multipurpose glue to stick the cut-out sheets inside the folder. Press firmly and allow the glue to dry briefly.
• Now place the folder on edge on, for example, SnapPap or a piece of fabric and mark the outline of the opened folder with a pencil. Cut out the marked part. Then use the cut out piece as a template and cut out a second side piece.
• Fold 1-2 cm on three edges of the cut side parts. Then fasten these pages inside the folder. This works best with a stapler or glue.
• Now cover the folder with GREEN alkyd paint.
• Finally, label the collection folder as desired and attach it to the wall.
