Ouija Board Game and
Pin the Tail on the Donkey Game
What you need to have on
hand:
X-acto knife and
fresh blade
Small detailing
scissors
Tweezers
Metal straight
edge ruler
Small artist's
paintbrush
Small piece of
aluminum foil to use as "glue pot"
Fast-grab,
quick-dry glue. Nicole sells a great one. White
craft glue takes too long to dry and is messy.
Glue stick will work, but becomes brittle and
pops loose after time.
Cutting surface.
You get a much better
cut than with cardboard and your blade will last
so much longer.
1.
Cut out all pieces for both games. Use the
straight edge ruler to press against fold lines.
This will give you clean straight creases. Fold at
all fold lines on all pieces.
Note: Use the blade
tool to cut the little tight spots such as those on
the donkey tails.
Take the planchette
storage box piece and place a layer of glue to the
long side tab.
2. Press tab against
inner side panel to form box.
3.
Place glue to the bottom long tab and close up the
end of the planchette box.
4.
Fold the planchette panels down the middle seam and
glue.
5. Trim the outer
rim of the planchette.
6.
Use tweezers to position and glue the three black
beads to the under side of the planchette. These act
as feet.
7. Take the
folded box top. Glue the tiny four tabs in place.
8.
Glue down the lining panels found on each side of
the box top. Use tweezers to squeeze the glued fold
line. This makes the edges thin and uniform so that
the top will fit on the bottom. Repeat for both
boxes' tops and bottoms.
9.
Fold the Ouija board in half and glue blank sides
together.
Glue beads to underside of board or balsa wood
strips to make it look more realistic.
