A soft, cloud-shaped paper desktop tray for storing sticky note pads, correction tape, and small stationery items.

  1. Trace a large, fluffy cloud outline onto a sheet of thick white poster board or cardstock and cut out two identical pieces.
  2. Cut a long 1.5-inch wide strip of cardstock to form the side wall rim.
  3. Score tiny tabs along the edge of the strip, fold them inward, and apply glue.
  4. Attach the side strip around the perimeter of the cloud base piece to create a 3D tray with raised edges.
  5. Draw closed eyelashes, rosy pink cheeks, and a small smile on the front cloud panel using markers, then pop your desk supplies inside.
