Cardboard Cut

Gift Wrap Cut

Don’t get me wrong, I really don’t mean most by most. It’s just the most I encountered here. The other day I had to send some gifts through one of my friend who was travelling in next couple of hours. The idiot that I am, I had forgotten to buy the gift boxes! So, I decided to make them myself. I had just about everything it takes – some cardboard boxes, gift wrap, glue, a pair of scissors and mighty interest.

I sat down with all those stuff and made a design without looking up on the net. Design, cut the cardboard, gift wrap and using glue just stick it around, make some cuts here and there and you are done. Of course, write something on small chit and stick it inside the box for giggles.

Since it was the first time making a tiny box, it took some time. Enough to irate some to pass comments like – “what a pain to save meager 3-4 dollars”, “dump all that and go buy from a shop” etc. It just makes me wonder how a handful of people have so many opinions/views about such a small thing. Just imagine how many different views ~7 billion people might have on all those issues that surround our lives.

PS: Where is the final giftbox, you may ask. The idiot forgot to take a picture before dispatching the box! :-)
