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.

Instructions

  1. Small 100 3641

    Gather the materials. Instead of wrapping paper I used last year's calendar pages.

  2. Small 100 3642

    Mark the places for the shelves. With some bits of cardboard, make the guides for the shelves and glue them to the walls of the box.

  3. Small 100 3644

    Make sure they are perfectly aligned and that there is enough space between them for the shelves.

  4. Small 100 3646

    Wrap it all with your wrapping paper, put your boxes in the shelves and admire your work.
