Magic Box Project By lifeaslou.blogsome.com
You need six sheets of matching paper (preferably a heavier weight). Choose one for your outside, a contrasting one for your lid, and 4 to create the inside boxes.…
Once the glue is dry (I do recommend a liquid glue to extra staying power) you should be able to close your box and the lid should fit perfectly on top. One corner of the box will remain open, as no part is designed to overlap. To remedy this, I like to tie mine up with ribbons. You can embellish them any way that you like.
With some fancy folding, a bit of cutting and some dabs of glue, these little boxes turn into something quite impressive. Embellish the finished box with some fancy ribbons or bows and use for gift giving or to hold little keepsakes.
