Cathedral Window Gift Box


Need a pretty gift box? This one is inspired by Cathedral Window patchwork and is super-fun to assemble. The facetted appearance is created by marquise-shaped corner tabs (if you've ever made a pillow box, you'll be familiar with them). Overlap the tabs to assemble. There's a pull tab, and a paper handle on the base, for easy opening.

Here is your free printable papercraft:

To assemble, score and fold. Insert loop ends through top slot and tape underneath. Slide the base handle in place and tape the ends on the inside.
Next, assemble the box by overlapping adjacent marquise shapes.

Happy last-minute papercrafting!
