This hexagonal gift box is perfect as a gift box. This tutorial is really old now, I’ve left this page up just because it’s linked from youtube and various other webpages. Please check out my newer tutorials, you can view the categories in the left menu.
You will need:
- 2 x A4 paper
- paper clip
- bull-dog clip or small paper clip
- Ruler and knife or scissors.
I tried my best to show you how to squash down the inside of the box and then the outside of the lid, but as you can (or can’t) see, its a bit of a fiddle!
Just keep trying, make sure the folds are pretty precise and eventually you can just push it down and it will fall into place.
