Step 2

Fold along the dotted lines to

create the casing, tucking in

the tabs and ensuring you’re

happy with the shape.

Step 3

Once you’re happy with the

structure, glue the tabs in

place inside the casing.

Step 1

Cut out all the elements from

the pull-out sheet over the

page. You might prefer to use

a craft knife rather than

scissors, particularly for

the window in the box. Cut

along the solid white lines

along the top of the shrine’s

outer casing (not the dotted

ones) to create the tabs that

will strengthen it.

Step 5

Stick in the two foliage side

pieces, using the tabs to place

them about halfway along the

depth of the casing.

Step 6

Use extras such as fascias

and flowers to personalise the

outside of your shrine, or add

more elements to the background

if you like.

Step 4
Choose a central element to
display in the shrine (bird,
heart or flowers) and stick it
to the inside of the casing
using foam sticky pads to add
some depth. (Or you could fold
a small piece of cardboard to
stick behind it instead.) If
you’d like to add extra elements
to the background behind the
object on display, stick them to
the background before you add
the main element.
