A special Baby Bootees Box... ...to send your gift.
Made the boots? Well here is a Baby Bootees Box to send them in.
If you have had a go at making the
Baby Bootees
then you are going to need a box to send them in. I would recommend that they be given as a gift as I don't think they would fair very well in the post.
It isn't a difficult project but it needs to be deep enough to house the boots.
And the base of the box will need to made slightly smaller than the top so that it will fit inside it.
Take two A4 cards and start with the top.
(A4 is 21 x 29.5cms) (8 1/2 x 11/ 3/4 ins)
From one of the short sides you are going to remove about 5cms (2ins)
Now working with the large piece that you have measure in from each of the sides by 6.4cms (2 1/2ins) (The red dashed line)
Once you have done this score and fold all the sided inwards.
From each of the flaps you will need to remove a small "V" (as shown in the photo)
Using a wet glue apply some to each of the cut flaps, you can just see the glue in the photo.
Fold the flaps inside the box and use paperclips to hold them in place while the glue dries.
Go ahead and make the Base for the box but remember to make it slightly smaller than the top or it won't fit inside.
So there you have your Baby Bootees Box.
This little project can be used for a baby shower, or a Christening, or to welcome a new arrival.
It could even be for a First Birthday and an extra gift added to the inside of the boot.
Give them a try and see what you come up with.
