Next you will want to hotglue the fabric to the bottom. I could not put glue around the entire perimeter because it would harden during picture taking. But run the gluegun around the the entire perimeter and press the fabric neatly onto the glue. Do this carefully to prevent burning yourself and secondly, try to do a smooth neat job because it makes for a better appearance. I would also suggest that this might not be an appropriate craft for 11 year olds on a sugar buzz! LOL We live and learn! LOL
