Ever find yourself in need of a gift box for a present or to organize some jewelry pieces? Why not make one yourself.
It's actually easier that you may think. This tutorial will walk you through making a simple box. Instructions for the top and bottom are identical.
No more hunting around for the right size box or the perfect coordinating colors. The choices are endless. For my bottoms, I use colored, textured cardstock. For the tops, I've used magazine pages, scrapbooking paper and gift wrap.
I've mentioned before that I'm attending the New York Institute of Art and Design. Here is a poster collage I had to create for one of my projects.
This project was designed to bring out creativity and inspiration. Although I created this project a while back, I still find myself feeling inspiration from this poster.
If you're a designer you may want to try this exercise out for yourself. Grab some old magazines and find photo's that inspire and make you smile. Cut them out. Find a nice size poster board and glue the images on.
Viola! Instant inspiration.
Oh, did I mention I received an A+.
