Organization is well and good, but packing things up in plastic baggies or plastic containers from your favorite big box store isn’t the way to go. You need to make your own magic with some sweet handmade boxes. None of these boxes are big enough to hold your winter boots, but they will definitely help you organize all of your most treasured little things – jewelry, rocks, mementos from your kiddos.
So whether you’re looking for a popsicle theme or a camera box full of inspiration, we’ve got something for you. Origami boxes are included too – they’ve got to be the fastest way to make a pretty box. Plus, they’re perfect for gift giving!
