This is pretty neat. Amanda Moor shows us how to make a pretty gift box out of a sheet of paper. You'll need paper, a round dish, a straight edge, a pencil, a protractor, and scissors. And it will help to have some ribbon to tie it shut with.
Since I have forty years' worth of nice boxes of all sizes saved from previous gift-giving occasions, there is zero chance that I will ever need to do this. Still, I found the process interesting and clever. This would be a neat project to do with kids. -via Boing Boing
