Sorry I have not posted in a while. Life just gets so busy sometimes. My "baby" will be turning 15 shortly and we have been studying for the driver license exam. How did I ever pass this many many years ago. My sons tell me it was because the horse and carriages were easier to drive (they are not funny).
Anyway in between studying, Birthday party preparations, redecorating (he wants his room repainted and redone for his birthday) and getting ready for back to school not to mention the full time job outside of being wife and mother I managed to get inspired to make these cute boxes.
I got the inspiration from Sarah Youde http://www.sarahyoude.com/2010/09/exploding-hexagon-carousel-box-video-tutorial.html I watched her tutorial and printed the pattern she has available on her blog. As much as I loved the exploding box I must always change things ( I don't know why my Mom says I have an illness cantleaveitaloneist or something. I added tabs to the wall panel and made the lid fit inside the box instead of on the outside.
I will be posting some others in a day or so that I made with clear panels. I am also working on a Design Studio pattern but the printable one on Sarah's blog is wonderful
Bye for now
This is so cute and such a great idea! Good luck with all the Birthday preperations!
