Triangle Box Tutorial

Triangle Box

Start with a piece of decorated cardstock or designer paper that is half as wide as it is long.  This piece is 10.5cm x 21cm.  Score down the centre of the long side, then marking the centre of each of the short sides, score from the centre to the scored line on the long side.

Using a bone folder crease all of the scored lines.

Working from the inside add double sided tape along two outer sides as shown.  If you would like the box to fall open once the ribbon is removed, then only apply tape to one side.

Peeling the backing from one side fold your box in half and adhere to the other side. 

Punch a hole in from the edge approx. 1cm, hold the other side in place while you punch a hole on the opposite side.  At this point you can fill your boxes  and then remove the tape from the second side and adhere.  I add tape so that it is more secure, but you can leave it so that the goodies can be taken out and the box re-tied.

Thread ribbon through the two sides and tie, then add your own touch of decoration.
