Who this list is for
This board game card holder craft list is for 9-year-olds making a tabletop holder for standard-size playing cards. The design uses simple folds and fitting checks rather than a complicated game accessory build.
How to use this list
Set standard playing cards aside as a fitting guide. Measure stiff corrugated cardboard with rulers and pencils, then cut it with child-safe scissors into a folded holder shape. Add felt sheets for a soft card area, use wide craft sticks and large binder clips for support, and attach finishing layers with double-sided tape or washable tacky glue. Patterned scrapbook paper and washi tape can decorate the outside.
Common mistakes
Do not finish the holder before testing it with standard playing cards. Leave enough room for cards to slide in and out rather than making a narrow slot. Avoid using large binder clips where they block the cards. Use double-sided tape or washable tacky glue carefully around felt sheets so the card area stays smooth.
What is on this list
The list includes stiff corrugated cardboard, felt sheets, wide craft sticks, large binder clips, double-sided tape, washable tacky glue, patterned scrapbook paper, washi tape, rulers, pencils, child-safe scissors, and standard playing cards for fitting. Cross off anything already in your craft supplies.
When you are done
Test the finished holder with the standard playing cards one more time after the glue is dry. Remove any pencil marks, press down tape edges, and put the cards back in their deck. Store the holder flat so its folded shape stays even.
