In this video I will teach you how to line a box with the material of your choice - fabric or a decorative paper. For a fabric lining, as used here, I will teach you how to glue backing paper to your fabric of choice, then cut it down, fit, and glue to the interior of your boxes for a fully lined interior. We will discuss some common mistakes in glued finishing, what to do when you make a mistake, and how to adjust your process. I will show you two different ways of gluing in the sides of the interior, depending on your skill and comfort level with finishing. We will also discuss the use of feet on a box, and the options for them Please watch this entire video before cutting your lining papers as there is a change in my initial method, and I suggest two alternate ways of lining the bottom sides of the box. You will need to watch the entire video first so you can decide on your approach.
