How to make your WW1 simple first aid kit
By Jane Harrop.
You will need
From 1/4in (6mm) diameter dowel:
- 3/4in (19mm) length for cotton wool
From 1/8in (3mm) diameter dowel:
- Three 1/2in (13mm) lengths for dressings
- Black tissue paper
- White or cream copier paper
- Tacky glue
Instructions
1. Cut a piece of tissue paper large enough to wrap around the cotton wool dowel.
2. Secure with a tiny amount of tacky glue.
Top tip! Press the side edges of the paper on to the ends of the dowel for a neat finish.
3. Print the labels on to copier paper, trim to size and glue the cotton wool label centrally on to the package.
