I've been wanting to make some boxes and finally kicked it off last night. I used to make them out of nice wrapping papers. This time round, due to not wanting to spend more money, I decided to make them out of some car magazines I stolen from the husband collections.
Since last night, I've made 7. It takes an average of 40 minutes to complete one from cutting of papers to folding them together. It's kinda thereupedic too. Keeping the mind busy and when completed, they look so pretty.
Now just left to fill them up with some goodies. I always tell friends that the box is the real present. The goodies inside are just supplementary. :)
By the way, we just collected Sunshine home a moment ago! And she is back to her usual self despite of the operation wound on her abdomen. I think she disliked the cone-of-shame more than the pain from the wound. :p Thank God all ends well. :)

Good to hear that Sunshine is recovering well. Wow, you are really good at making things with your hands - nice boxes! :)
I wish i had some talents like that...those are amazing!
Thanks girls. The husband bought me this 'Origami Boxes' book years ago and it has since been my most valuable book. I simply love stuff like that.
When he saw my boxes yesterday, he said... "you are good at these kinda stuff. unfortunately you don't do them always". I replied.. "I did. The last time I did was 5 years ago! Lols..... -.-
