Boxed

Has anyone made cute handmade boxes?

You can see a box-making tutorial here and even a short video here!

I have wanted to try to make them for a while and even saved catalogs and magazines with great covers in heavy paper to use for them.

Yesterday, I receive a rather large Thanksgiving card. There it was on my desk staring at me. As I was defragging my hard drive (kind of like watching paint dry), I noticed the card and thought that it would make a good test box, a tiny test box. I had the time.

Making the box was so easy using the tutorials and the video. I see that magazine cover paper weight woud be best. But, here are some photos of my very first TEST box! I am inspired!
