Step 3Fold the bottom and sides
-The coffee sleeves I used had perforations on the sides. Tear open one side so you have a long strip to work with.
-Place one of the squares in the center of the strip
-Using a pen, mark the strip on each side of the square. This marks the bottom of the pot
-Line up one of the marks with a ruler, and score the paper using the mechanical pencil. Retract the lead in the pencil before you do this step. Scoring the cardboard will make the folds much nicer.
-Score the cardboard 2 more times, slightly to the left and to the right of the line you marked.
-Fold the cardboard on the scores so the flaps are standing straight up.
-Do this for all marks made in this step and the next.
-Line the square up with the bottom. At this point, you can either turn the assembly on its side and mark and score again, or you can just fold the remaining flaps down into the square. Scoring takes longer, but gives a neater appearance.
- Repeat this step with the remaining coffee sleeve, making sure to keep the first two sleeves assembled while you mark the placement. If you're confused, forget all you've read and follow the pictures in order :)
