Candle gifts


My tutorial came about today as while on my mission to
use up lots of neglected stash I came across a drawer full of these
little candles.  So why not design a box and gift them this year.
The lid of the box is acetate and I made a large one first which
holds 12 candles and thought it was a bit much so made the
same box smaller to hold just four candles.



You can watch my video here


Measurements needed to make small box
DSP - 6 1/4" x 6 1/4"
Score all sides - 3/4", 1 1/2"
Acetate/window sheet - 4 3/4" x 4 3/4"
Score all sides - 3/4"

I would like to enter these into
