You may have noticed that I have been sewing like crazy lately.\u00a0 In fact I finished two more things last night, yet another garment and\u00a0a home\u00a0dec item I think you’ll love.\u00a0 Tutorial coming soon.<\/p>\n

It’s been fun, but I decided to take break and make a little paper gift box for a friend’s upcoming birthday.\u00a0 The resulting mess is what you see here.\"2011-08-03-whats-on-your-workdesk-wednesday\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Below is my original plan,\u00a0there definitely need to be some bits and bobs under the rose, and perhaps some trim around the box.\u00a0The grunge paper roses are leftover from a Tim Holtz project<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The more I look, the more I’m thinking these\u00a0 roses are just a tad too chunky for this little box, so I think I’ll try these sugarplum flowers<\/a> instead. (I’ll post a pic when it’s all finished.) \"origami-gift-box\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I used this kirigami box tutorial<\/a>.\u00a0 These boxes are super easy and too much fun to make, try just one and you’ll be hooked.\u00a0 I cut a 6″ square for the lid and a 5.75″ square for the bottom.<\/p>\n

I’ll bet she’s gonna like the box more than the gift, haha!<\/p>\n

Oh, and Fabric.com just sent out this free totebag pattern<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Do I need yet another tote bag?<\/p>\n

No.<\/p>\n

Will I make this one?<\/p>\n

Maybe….<\/p>\n

Happy creating!<\/p>\n

P.S.\u00a0 Why a photo of my workdesk, you ask?\u00a0 Because it’s What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday<\/a>.\u00a0 Join in the fun!<\/p>\n
