How to make a handmade gift box

Step 1: To make a handmade gift box, we must first prepare colored cardboard, ruler, scissors and pencil.

Step 2: first draw a square on the colored paper board with a pencil. This square is the size of the bottom of the box.

Step 3: Draw four rectangles with the same size from the four sides of the square, and the height is half of the side length of the square. This is one side of the box.

Step 4: Draw four triangles between four rectangles and draw the height of the triangles.

Step 5: Draw two trapezoids with the same size outside the upper and lower rectangles.

Step 6: Draw two more rectangles with the same size on both sides of the left and right rectangles, but only draw half of the two sides of the rectangle.

Step 7: Draw half hearts on both sides of the left and right rectangles.

Step 8: Cut the paper along the outermost contour of all the figures with scissors.

Step 9: Cut out two adjacent heart-shaped lines with scissors.

Step 10: Fold all the lines and fold all the creases by hand.

Step 11: First, erect four rectangles, fold four triangles into the box, and the edges of the box will be there.

Step 12: Cover the two trapezoids and two rectangles outside the four rectangles as covers, and insert the two hearts in a staggered way to make a gift box.
