Need a box for your Valentine sweets?
This is so easy to make from standard computer paper and with a few folds and snips you're done.
Instructions are available over at Simply Paper using scrapbook paper although I found standard paper works just fine for my small box.
I started with two pieces of coloured paper trimmed: the top being 8 inches square and the bottom being 7 3/4 inches square. This will make a box 2 3/4 inches ( 7cms.) square.
The possibilities are endless for the square kirigami box as you can use wrapping or kraft paper for a bigger box. Just keep in mind you will need card stock (or a cereal box) trimmed to reinforce the sides in order to keep it's shape.
