Thank you very much for your kind words.
The foam sheet between exactly inside the box; I keep about 2.5cm (1 inch) to hide the edge of the box. The foam works well: with the warmth of hands, I stretch him at various places and I glue (hot glue) near the junction.
I also spot a strip of foam to the bottom of the box, and I flaps on the box, by cutting the surplus to make a nice round under the box : this method protects the top of the furniture on which is deposited the pencil holder
Have a nice day
Hugs,
Céline

Thanks for the nice explanation. I always wanted to make the same project, but have wondered how to fix the same problem, as I did´n want to put fabric inside the can to cover it. I love your idea. Thank very much for sharing your ideas. You´re creative and a kind person.
Have a nice day you too. Hugs,
Dirce
