Anyway... these (rubbish) pictures are of the boxes I've been making recently for a local art collective. They were coordinating a wedding and the boxes are to be used to contain the catalogue/rsvps...
An A3 sized clamshell box, the biggest I've ever made by a long way! But it worked out well, it opened and closed... I just took it steady and concentrated hard :)
This is a big box to hold objects sent with the rsvps. Its bigger than A3 and 25cm tall (I moved in...)
The exhibition title was embossed onto the boxes with a heavily etched copper plate.
So, I'm hoping that when I next come to make a small box (normal sized box!) again it will seem a bit easier...

That clamshell box looks so good! I've been struggling with that for such a long time that I eventually just gave up for the time being ;)
Oh don't give up for ever though! Just take a break and try something else, and when you come back to boxes it might be that little bit easier (that's what happened to me anyway :) )
wonderful work, the lettering is the icing on the cake!
