Slide your rectangular tissue box through the open bottom.
Align the tissue slit with the top opening of your crocheted cover.
If needed, add small Velcro dots to keep the cover secure.

💡 Pro Tips
- Keep stitches tight for crisp box edges.
- Block your panels lightly before assembly for a perfect fit.
- For easier removal, attach the bottom flap with buttons or snaps instead of sewing it shut.
