Step 1: First, you are going to undo the top of the carton. Make sure to wash and dry it well before starting the next step. And don't throw away the cap.

Step 2: For this part, you will need the scisors, but an x acto knife will work just as good. Cut the bottom of the carton completely off. When you are finished with that, make sure that the edges look good, because you will see some of them later in the project.

Step 3: Now take a ruler and measure 3 inches from the bottom on any of the sides, but NOT the front. Draw a small line with sharpie on this spot. Then measure 5 inches from the bottom on the same side. Also mark this spot. This is going to be the size of your change purse.
Step 4: On the same side, cut the top and bottom parts off, leaving the space between the marks. Do the same to the other two sides. DON'T CUT THE FRONT! :)
Step 5: Now push the side opposite of the front inwards towards the front. Make sure it creases on the other two sides. It should kind of look like an accordion. Make two more folds, like the first ones, on either side. You should have three folds on both sides.
Step 6: Fold the bottom part of the front side over the body of the change purse. Make sure there is barely any space at the bottom for coins to fall through. Now attach the side to the purse. You can glue it, tape it, or both. (I taped it). Then fold the top part over, but don't glue. Cut off any access carton. :)

Step 7: Now take an x acto knife and cut the plastic thing off of the front side. This can be hard, so be careful. Then make sure that the cap fits inside that whole, and it isn't too big or too small.

Step 8: Glue the cap in the right spot so that when you fold over the top, the hole and cap will line up and close shut. (Gorilla glue works best). Once it dries, you can put tape over all the folds so that they won't break or get all nasty looking. (This is optional).
This is what the finished product should look like:
