I recently bought a Color Catcher at Michaels and it works great! I use it to protect my work area when I use glimmer mist, spray inks or paint. However, I wanted my box to be just a little larger so I made my own spray box version. After a few experiments I was able to make one that is larger and collapsible for easy storage. I used a readily available box, the kind they ship 8 ½ x 11 inch copy paper in so the materials would be easy to find. This is a super easy and quick project that will help protect your work area. Happy crafting!

This is a great idea, Linda! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks. Beats holding down in my trash can and spraying.
I have been using spray catchers for years for small and large home projects. Anything that needs to be spray painted. Sure does save your surfaces. Great how-to video Linda. I think everyone has a box or two around. Can't imagine buying one of these when you can make it. After all, we are crafters and usually think outside the box anyway. Right?

How easy is that? I have a Color Catcher and you're right, it does need to be bigger. Great video and super easy instructions.

Oh MY GOSH!!! I've been wanting one of these for a long time,every time I go to the craft store to get one I'd always find another crat item I needed more...LOL
I bring these boxes home from work all the time...I usually put my donate items in them....ROTFLOL!!! Not no more ...I'm making me a spray catcher!!THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING this GREAT IDEA!!!
Wow I can get rid of the box taking up storage in my room.. How simple was this idea. I will be stalking the custodian tomorrow at work for a copy box.. LOL
Awsome idea Linda! I must give this a try!!
Super idea! I love that it collapses for easy storage (although my son is collecting binder clips - so I'm not sure that would work for me if he sees them!!).
Great idea!! I have of the the store-bought Color Catchers but it sure would be great to have a larger spray box--- and I love that yours is collapsible!!
Thank You for showing this easy tip...I will be making one. I like that you use binder clips and fold flat.

Thanks for the great tutorial, Linda. I've just been using a box turned on it's side, but it's so big, it takes a tremendous amount of space to store it. I'm off to make your version right now! ~Hugs, Cheryl
