Steps:
1. Print out the Halloween zombie box template on white cardstock that fits your printer.
2. Color the parts.
3. Cut out the box template and the two parts of the zombie.
4. Fold the box template along the dashed lines. Fold the flaps of the zombie as shown in the picture.
(Tip: to make folding easy, score the lines first by placing a ruler and tracing the lines with a butter knife. This will create a soft crease).
5. Apply glue on the tabs that say “GLUE TABS”. Glue the flaps to assemble the box.
6. Glue the zombie parts to each other, back-to-back (don’t put glue on the flaps).
7. Apply glue to the bottom of the zombie’s flaps and glue the zombie to the top of the box.
Hooray, your spooky cute zombie box is complete! I hope you loved making it and that you’ll have fun using it 😊🎃
