– cork sheets (mine have little flecks of color in them, if you like that sort of thing)
– scissors
– hot glue gun
– pen or pencil for marking
– ruler* or straightedge
*You can definitely create these cork containers without a ruler if you prefer. I did mine without one. BUT it’s a lot easier to get the measurements right the first time if you have one (which I realized after the fact). Just FYI.
