Folded Felt Gift Box

After spotting these felt, flatpack breadbaskets from Teroforma, and I thought, "Dude, you can totally make that." My idea, however, was not a breadbasket, but a little gift basket. So I grabbed paper and pencil and came up with plan. The original tutorial, published at my home turf over on Curbly, was recently spotted by Nicole here on Instructables who invited me to post. So, with Curbly's permission, here it is, my first Instructable. Hope you like it!

Step 1 Supplies Needed:

one 8" x 11" piece of heavy felt from the craft store, NOT the flimsy kind

a scissors

craft knife and cutting mat, optional but helpful

doo-dads to decorate the box

a pencil

a PDF template, which you can find on my Scribd page
