TRIANGULAR BOX
​
This triangle shaped box isn't just functional, but really visually striking too. Three sheets required for assembly.
BOX
​
This square box's dimensions can be changed with longer or shorter paper, useful for holding office supplies etc.
BOX WITH LID​
This box can be doubled to used as a lid too, great for keeping those annoying little things that seem to disappear in your desk.
STAR BOX
​
This star shaped box is great for gifts as it's really something special, and of unusual shape.
EASY BOX
​
This box is probably the easiest I know, and can be made using normal office (A4) paper left lying around.
BOWL/DISH​
This dish looks good with either two or one sided paper, useful for candy or, ahem, fruit... maybe.
ENVELOPE​
A second type of envelope, this one's probably the easier of the two on my site, without the bevelled corners.
HEART BOOKMARK
​
Featured both here and in the valentines section, a bookmark is as practical as it is cute.
