Buying a gift for a loved one is only half the battle, it is also important to pack the present beautifully. In this case, a hand-made heart-shaped box can be an excellent option.
Cardboard box-heart
Materials used:
- colored cardboard;
- scissors or clerical knife;
- ruler;
- pencil;
- glue.
Manufacturing:
We transfer this scheme for making a box-heart on a sheet of cardboard - you can print it or draw it.
We cut out the resulting cardboard blank along the contour using scissors or a clerical knife, after which we bend the side fragments.
Next, we start assembling the box. To do this, grease the edges of the heart with glue and press the corresponding parts tightly to them.
Let the glue dry and the heart-shaped box is ready. The size of the box may vary depending on your desire and the parameters of the gift.
This homemade case is perfect for sweets and small gifts.
