Gift box

Material : Spool from used cellophane tape, scrap damask tickings, cardboard and artificial roses.

Date start and end of project : 10th May, 2007
Project idea :My own, inspiration from some magazine that I saw previously.

Comments : I saw some pretty gift boxes over the magazines sometimes ago and have an inspiration to make one myself. Since it's hard and expensive in Malaysia to get materials to make such a box, I used spool from 2 sizes of cellophane tapes, 1 @ 5cm and 1 @ 2 cm heights to make this. Wrap it with fabric by glue them on all the surfaces and top one side of it with round fabric covered cardboard. Inlay a cardbord inside the bigger spool, about 1 cm higher and lastly glue a decoration on top of the cover. In this case I used artificial roses. This is a very simple, inexpensive and nice project to work on. Yet a nice gift to give away too.
