1. A washed, empty food tin (use one of the tins with a ringpull lid so it doesn't have dangerous sharp edges).
2. A sheet of wrapping paper that has pictures on it.
3. A small piece of thick cardboard (to fit on the bottom of the tin).
4. A small piece of felt (the same size as the cardboard).
5. Scissors, paper glue and a pencil.
6. A small pot of clear varnish (you can buy this from any paint shop).
