Create a welcome addition to any room with these gorgeous magazine files

 

Decorated magazine filesCover some basic magazine files in floral wrapping paper to provide pretty storage for all those magazines, recipes or bills.

 

Buy flat-pack cardboard files and cover before you make them up. One sheet of wrapping paper will cover one folder. Lay file on wrapping paper so join will be at back or lower side of file. Leave a margin at top and bottom to be trimmed accurately later. Glue paper to file one side at a time, overlapping edges to finish neatly. Trim away excess paper accurately at top and bottom. Make up file.
