Making a Jack in a Box

This is a little more challenging than I thought but then isn't everything. I have spent the whole morning just sewing the lining and sorting out the step by step process of how exactly I manage to contain everything in the box without it all coming apart but still looking neat and fun.......The first job was to actually put a catch on the box on the outside. That needed to be done before the spring went in. The spring needed to be attached to a bottom plate which is then glued to the inside bottom of the box. The lining had to be sewed to the right length to go over the spring . The lining will have to be glued inside the bottom section of the box. I need to attach the photos, which are to be concertinered from the box, to the cloth and spring in such a way that they come out OK and right way up......all fun and games but getting there.
