Step 16Make a bottom for the stand / base

make a bottom for the stand / base
place the tray open face down on to a piece of corrugated card or foam board. It is quite important that you use either of these types of board, because in a minute we are going to poke a stick through to the base and if you use very hard board you won't be able to do this so easily.

Draw round gently and carefully taking care not to distort the shape of the tray as you draw round it. When you have done this you are going to cut out the card and insert it in the tray , so if you have bent the tray out of shape when drawing round, it will distort the tray when stuck in it or it might not fit at all.
