I had 3 identical plastic chocolate boxes lying around and it was bothering me that I didn't have a place for them, so I decided to make a small chest and place it in my bookshelf.

It's my first how-to and I only realized in the middle of my project that I could post it here, so I don't have photos of the whole process. Please bear with me.
