Another one of my passions is paper! I love to make paper boxes to stash things and gifts in. Since it's such a blah night, if you are looking for something artsy to do, you can download some nifty templates to print and make into boxes.... http://www.paperfoldables.com/ Bryan, whoever you are, thank you for your generosity!
It's actually very easy . Start with the simplest one, Toki Tori, the yellow chick box. Download the PDF file, then print, cut out the pieces, and fold on the dotted lines. The flaps are very inherent as to where they should fold into. Next, move on to the ones that are multi-part. Krang is fun, because he has a pink kittee in his tummy. If you have graphics software and a large-format printer, you can use the software to scale up the container sizes (80lb or 50lb card-stock paper is perfect). The "Party Pinatas" are great for making Halloween candy containers for kiddies!
Thank you for the correction! I read up on Krang... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krang I didn't realize he was so complex! Gee, those animation writers are quite creative (they must eat a lot of cookies to feed the flames of the imagination) ...but I still like to think of him as a pink kittee (albeit a devious one!)
