I love making things from scratch. I also love reusable gift boxes, bags and totes. So this morning I decided to make a gift box from scratch. The one I made was small, but they really can be made the same way in any size. I decided to decorate mine in newsprint pieces because I love the look, but you can decorate them with any type of paper or you can paint it, if the cardboard is heavy enough not to warp. Below are step by step instructions on how to make this box, it is really easy. Try one and see!
