Another way to do the fun box

Some time ago I wrote a post in which I explained how to make a fun box (boxes covered with patterned paper). After making my first box I discovered I could make them in a different way, based in Chinese takeout boxes. I liked it better than the first one :).

The first box I made didn't had those triangles in the outside. If you also like this version better you can make it with the next steps :).

Templates boxes have a part that is supposed to be fold into the inside of the box, and that part comes many times in the shape of a triangle. Well, in this case instead of folding the triangle to the inside of the box what I did was to cut it so as to leave the triangles in the outside of the box and then attach them together as shown in the picture (in this case they were four triangles because the box is like a cube).

Instructions:
1) Cut the triangles (the ones that are supposed to be fold). Don't cut them through the middle (where they are supposed to be fold). To cut them do the following: if your box is going to be a cube like mine chose two squares that will be facing each other when the box is finished. Then (only in those two squares) separate the triangles from the square by cutting it in the edge (be careful, you should do this only in the two squares you chose before!).
2) Once you cut the triangles cover the box with patterned paper and then attach the triangles with a clasp and then attach them to the side of the box they are facing. Just follow the picture :)!

The folding triangle without cutting it; when it is cut (1) and then everything attached (2).

It also looks great in the inside of the box. When doing the box in this way the folded triangles will not be in the inside, and I like it this way much better (I find it horrible with the folds inside) :P.

This is how it looks in the inside, with out folds!

Before and after.

If the post is too complicated please let me know so as to make it as clear as possible :)!
