Folding Instructions
Folding the box is pretty easy too. Here's some instructions and photo's of me making a box.
Start by printing the box template onto a sheet of paper or card. Then get your scissors, ruler and glue ready.
I always find it easier to cut off the excess paper around the template before trying to cut the precise shape.
Cut around the edge of the box template, being careful to remove all the white paper. Use the dark solid line as the cutting line. Make sure you cut along the solid line on the boxes lid flaps, as this is the part that holds the lid together.
Once it's all cut out, fold along the dotted lines. You can see on this photo that the folds are done towards the white insides of the template.
Put some glue on the insides of the side flaps. I used a purple color glue so you can see where. Once the glue is on, fold the box so the flaps are on the outside and the glue sticks them to the sides that have no images.
And that's it!! Now you can spruce it up with some ribbon or other decorations.
