You would be able to get lots of chocolates in there if that was the gift you were giving, and much prettier than a shop bought box that they come in.
Here is the White box that I made from Centura Pearl card from Crafters Companion
It is a quite a sturdy card and as the card was 16" square the finished box is big... just think of the chocolates that would go in that one.
The only problem with that is I would be saying "One for the box .. and one for me...." if you know what I mean?????
The top to the box has been decorated with the Poinsettia Flowers and I added in some white feathers later.
This is the box that is created on the video and because of the time limits with YouTube I have had to do it in two parts.
You can find them both here in this link... Origami Box Tutorial and I hope you will enjoy it.
And I wonder if you will spot the deliberate mistake .... I forgot to add the tag that I cut out for the box.
But you can see it in the photo so I remebered after the video was complete.
I have used a double sided good quality paper for this so that it wouldn't tear and the "Bling" is from Want2Scrap
I have also done it in a darker colour way as I have an Aunt who loves this look.
So guess what her Christmas prezzie will be in this year !!!
And it will be filled with scented soaps and bath crystals as well as a face cloth and other goodies for her to use.... coz I will have eaten the choccies !
