To pack small presentations, your loved ones need a small box. You can buy it in a specialized store, or you can do it yourself. In the second version, the gift will turn out not only beautiful, but also very sincere. Today we will tell you how to make a butterfly box out of plain paper.
Preparation of materials
To create beautiful packaging for a mini-presentation, you will need a sheet of thick paper or thin cardboard. You can use colored paper or choose white paper, and then draw something from yourself using felt-tip pens.
Also, prepare scissors and glue. It is best to use PVA, which is ideal for gluing paper crafts. If you wish, you can add jewelry in the form of rhinestones, sequins, buttons, ribbons, etc.
How to make a box?
In order to make a butterfly box out of paper, take a prepared sheet of thick paper and a pencil with a ruler. Now draw a rectangle 7-8 cm wide in the center of the sheet. Divide it with dashed lines into 4 equal parts. Next, draw on each side the remaining details, as in the figure below. When the drawing is ready, cut it out and proceed with gluing.
Decorate the finished butterfly box made of paper with decorative tape, drawings, small beads or sequins.
Packaging without bottom
Another option for gift wrapping for your loved one is a wrapper without a bottom. Such packaging is suitable for small rectangular presents that can stand on their own.
For this option, draw a rectangle with butterflies around the edges according to the diagram. Then cut and fold into a triangle. The packaging should be closed between the two wings of the butterfly. To do this, make a small clasp in the form of a semicircle on one side and slots on the other. Decorate the finished box as you wish.
