…compilation of tutorials
I presented all sorts of boxes already, but when you want to wrap something little and flat like a cookie or a necklace pendant, most of them aren’t suitable because of their shape.
Quite different the pizza box gift box: it is folded like a pizza box and what could be flatter? ;-)
I really like the idea and the template and will use it for sure when needed.
I’ve never heard about before: surprise ball gifts, but I find the idea sooo great: the presentee can use everything incl. the ‘wrapping’.
I wonder who will get my first surprise ball gift ;-)

I found an instruction on how to make easy gift bags from envelopes. The result looks really nice and I already arranged my envelopes and stamps…

I found at instructables a tutorial on how to make paper flowers.
It seems to be quite easy and they are looking amazingly beautiful!
When the gift wrapping begins soon this can be a wonderful decoration.
But it could be also a beautiful pin for a beautiful woman ;-))

After the duct tape wallet and the tetrapak coin purse I’d like to present today an ingenious tutorial on how to fold a paper wallet.
On the photo you see one of my test wallets, folded from an official envelope with window and blue patterned lining.
Envelopes are unfortunately too narrow, I can’t put in an unfolded bank note, but it was fun to fold ;-)
I folded others from DIN A4 paper covered in gift wrapping and I really like the size.
One has got a little pocket glued on, another got its sides glued together. One has been covered in self-adhesive book foil, another has been glued after been covered in transparent gift wrapping.
All work fine and seem to be robust (the author of the tutorial writes about this aspect, too).
The only thing I miss is a ‘real’ coin purse with closure.
But the best is: the folding is done in no time ;-))
It is e.g. a wonderful wrapping if you want to give money.
Es wäre z.B. eine tolle Verpackung für ein Geldgeschenk.

As mentioned before you sometimes need a little box.
I found instructions on how-to fold a custom card box which can easily be used as little gift box.
And best of all there is Craig Forbes’ Tuckbox Generator where you can fill in the sizes you want and get a PDF file with your special custom template.
