The problem with my instructions is the fact that I never made the box. But here is my template, as well as instructions on how to make it.

READ THIS BEFORE YOU EVEN START

Well, if you have made it this far, I must start by saying thank you!!!. Now let us cut to the chase.
You absolutely need to print out the template, unless you are a genius.

For the template, I recommend a nice strong card stock paper. It will make the box stronger.

For the actual part of the box with the pretty stars and vader, use what you want, but a nice shiny paper would be best. Some have talked about printing on a foil for nice effect



The area that says DO NOT CUT, keep those words in mind. No part of that should be cut.

Cut the area that says "cut across this dotted line" on the Mid Flaps, but do NOT get near the middle part of the box.

Now fold the TOP were it says Bottom Flap, Mid Flap, and Top flap. Make sure it is a perfect fold, do not go past where
it says do not cut.

Do the same for the BOTTOM

NOW, fold the lines from the top Mid Flap, to the bottom Mid Flap even going across the Do Not Cut part.

Put a dab of glue on top of the BOTTOM FLAP
Press the MID FLAP on top of the Bottom Flap.
Put a dab of glue on top of the MID FLAP
Put a dab of glue on the exposed part of the BOTTOM FLAP
Press the TOP FLAP on top of ALL FLAPS.

DO THE SAME FOR BOTH SIDES.

Does it look like a box yet?  DO THE SAME FOR THE COVER, THAT YOU DID WITH
THE TEMPLATE!!!!!



FOR A NICE SEAMLESS COVER

Print out the cover on a thick gloss, or card stock. Then print the template on the back.
