About
A great alternative to wrapping gifts =)
Based on a pattern for a takeout box, but with straight sides.
You'll need to print out the pattern, the paper or cardstock that you're making the box with, scissors or an x-acto knife (or both), painter's tape, four paper clips, and glue.

You Will Need
-
Step 1This is the pattern you need to print out.
-
Step 2Gather up all your materials.
-
Step 3Attach the pattern onto the paper or cardstock. The painter's tape will hold it in place but will not damage the paper when you lift if off.
-
Step 4Cut out the pattern. I used scissors for the straight parts and the x-acto for the curves and complicated part.
-
Step 5Score the paper along the lines on the pattern. I'm not very good at scoring, so I just folded along the lines, making sure the fold was crisp.
-
Step 6The part between the sides of the box need to be folded in, to create the corners.
-
Step 7It should start to look like this.
-
Step 8You need to place glue on the corners to hold them together.
-
Step 9I don't have the patience to hold the corners until they dry, so I place paperclips to hold the corners together while they dry.
-
Step 10Do all four corners. After they finish drying, you can remove the clips and place additional glue on one side of the flaps and glue them to the sides of the box (so that they're not in the middle).
-
Step 11Fold the top flaps down to close the box. You're done!
