Travel box I made for my razor and toothbrush head (slrpnk.net)

Made from cardboard paper, wheat glue and filled with coffee ground

The coffee ground shrinks a lot when drying. I'd use cardboard layers instead if I had to do it again

I just mixed it with glue to make a grainy paste. Then I used it to fill around the the razor and brush. Finally I covered it with paper and dry for a week. Occasionally I would leave the razor and brush inside to prevent it from shrinking
