Recycled Paper Boxes

Image
We still have a pile of old magazines to use up and the mayday baskets didn't even cause a dent in the pile so we are making more paper crafts. These cute little boxes are great for gift boxes or storing your knick-knacks. What you'll need: Scissors Paper (magazines or construction paper) Optional: tape or glue Step 1:  If you don't' have a square piece a paper, create a square piece by lining up the corner and creasing it. Cut the edge off.  Step 2: Fold over the other diagonal.  Step 3: Fold all four corner points into center.  Step 4: Fold corner point over to edge line. Repeat for all sides.  The fold lines should look like the below picture so far. Step 5: Fold corner points down to first crease line.  Step 6: Cut along two sides leaving the center box. Step 7: Fold corner to center.  Step 8: Fold edge over and flaps in.  Step 9: Repeat on the other side.  S
