Christmas Light Boxes

Step 3Make Boxes For Signs

Make Boxes For Signs
To make the boxes, I use the faceplate as a pattern, and out line that on a piece of regular corrugatged cardboard.  Then, for the sides of the box, I add about 1 and 1/4 to 2 inches for each side.  Cut out as shown, fold sides up and tape into place. I add a one half inch strip of cut cardboard to the inside top edges for support for the faceplate.
