Description
Create a toolbox, complete with drawer space and room to tuck tools in the cover. Begin with the basics of measuring and cutting bookboard, gluing, construction, paper selection (Japanese Chiyogami and others) and embellishment. Accurate measuring, sharp creasing, an eye for symmetry and understanding of color are key to completing this challenging project.
