Meltintalle's Closet

First, you draw the detailed dagger shape. Then you cut it out of the box flap with your box knife. Then you draw around it on a different part of the box flap and cut the slightly larger dagger shape out.

Cut the blood channel out of the detailed shape. Make hilt detailing.

Then you slit the corrugated cardboard apart so you have three daggers.



Layer with the solid dagger in the middle and glue together with rubber cement. (With the extra hilt layers you'll have five piece of cardboard stacked together.) Cover in aluminum foil. Wad the foil up where the lion shape will be for extra 3D effect.



Wrap the hilt in red fabric. Stretch tight and stitch in place. (Yes, you can sew through cardboard.) Paint the silver foil ball gold. Add the other gold detailing with gold fabric paint.



Enjoy, but Use Gently! (No sparring, or the foil will come off the blade.)
