CS or DSP 6" x 12"
Score on the short side at 1".
Score on the long side at 3 1/8", 5 3/4", 8 7/8", and 11 1/2".
Between the 3 1/8" and 5 3/4" score lines, make a score line at 1 3/4". See drawing below.
For the lines with the hash marks, cut.
For the box with the "xx", remove this section.
Fold up the gray section, fold up and adhere with sticky strip or glue.
Put glue or sticky strip on the pink section and create the box.
Fold the bottom tabs in and glue together.
Cut a piece of matching CS or DSP (sorry, I did not write down the measurements for this) and place on the inside of the bottom of the box and adhere.
Cut a piece of chipboard 3 3/8" x 2 3/4" and glue to the outside of the bottom of the box to give it more stability.
For the lid, cut a piece of matching CS or DSP 4 1/4" x 4 3/4". Score 3/4" on all sides - trim the tabs and glue to make the lid.
For CS or DSP like the one pictured above on the right, you need ...
- 2 - 2 1/2" x 3"
- 1 - 1 3/4" x 2 1/2"
- 1 - 2 1/2" x 2 1/2"
- 1 - 2 1/2" x 3" for the top of the lid. Make sure you have your pattern going the right direction when you cut the one for the lid!
I made what I call rosettes for the tops of these. To do this, cut a piece of CS 1" x 12" and score every 1/2". Fold mountain, valley, mountain, valley, etc until the piece is folded like a fan. Glue the ends together (it will make a circle) and then flip the piece inside on itself to create the rosette - you need to hold the center of the rosette or it will pop out on you! I cut 2 - 1" circles and glued them on either side of the rosette.
The rosette on top of the dispenser on the right was made with a 1 1/2" x 12" piece of CS. Before scoring, I trimmed the edge with an edge border.
I glued the rosettes to the top of the lid.
You can decorate these any way you like. The one on the left is decorated with a doily that I cut in half so it would fit with just a little bit hanging over the edges of the box.
Have a great day! ツ
