Paper Crafts for Summer and All Occasions - Gift Box for CD’s
Wait before you throw away those used calenders! Recycle them! Most likely they have wonderful colorful motifs and you can create many items using them! Good calenders have also thicker pages which makes them sturdier for crafting with. This is one example of what you could craft!  You can create a small box to use to give CD’s as a gift or maybe you have a special CD you would like to store in a special way! Either way, the covering looks decorative and is so fast and easy to complete!

 

 

Paper Craft for Summer - Easy to Make CD Gift Box

Copyright: All patterns, pictures and text found on Craftideas.info are property of this website and may be only printed out and used for private or non-commercial purposes. It is not permitted to use them on the internet or in any other publication.

For this project you will need:

- Used calenders with colorful pages - paper
  should be of a thicker quality or choose from
  lots of available scrapbook papers
- white cardstock
- quilter’s ruler
- stylus
- small squares of 2-sided self adhesive
  tape

 

 

Instructions:

1. Find a motif in your calender that you are fond of and cut it out the following size: 16 cm x 14.5 cm. When completed, a normal CD Box or 2 Maxi-CD boxes will fit within this box.
2. Cut the white cardstock out just a tad smaller than the calender page. This will be the bottom of the box. Cutting it smaller will ensure that the bottom half of the box will fit within the top half!
3. Follow the instructions in the link below on how to make boxes. The instructions on the link page are written for making boxes out of cards but the procedure is the same. Follow these steps for the calender page and for the white cardstock. On this project, the side walls measure 1 cm on all sides. When folded, the box will measure 14 cm (l) x 12.5 cm (w) x 1 (h).
