Introduction

Creating paper boxes is an accessible craft that can be both practical and artistic. Whether for packaging gifts or organizing items, making paper boxes by hand offers a personal touch and cost-effectiveness.

Materials and Tools Required

To make a standard paper box, you will need the following materials and tools:

• One sheet of A4 paper (21 x 29.7 cm)
• Scissors
• Ruler
• Pencil
• Glue stick

Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Paper Box

Step 1: Preparing the Paper

1. Place the A4 paper on a flat surface.
2. Using the ruler and pencil, draw a square measuring 21 x 21 cm. Cut out this square with scissors.

Step 2: Folding the Paper

1. Fold the square paper in half horizontally and then vertically to create creases for guidance.
2. Unfold the paper and fold each corner towards the center point where the creases intersect.

Step 3: Forming the Sides

1. With each corner folded towards the center, fold the left and right edges to the middle of the paper.
2. Unfold the edges and repeat the step for the top and bottom edges.

Step 4: Shaping the Box

1. Unfold all the edges, leaving the corners folded.
2. Raise two opposite sides by pinching the corners. Gradually pull up remaining edges to form the box shape.
3. Secure the sides into place using the glue stick as necessary for stability.
