DIY : Plastic bottles boxes and packaging | Recyclart

Now this is a plastic bottle craft I can get behind! Pillow boxes are actually so clever I wish I had thought of them myself. The intro is in English but the instructions are in Spanish. The diagram to make the pillow boxes are quite clear though.

If someone has the time to google English instructions I would be happy to edit this post with a link or two.

Crocodile Boxes : Lowe Brindfors

Originally designed for the children’s section of a Swedish department store, I think this is an adorable way to wrap a birthday present!

Rhett Dashwood is officially my hero. Why? Because he turns second hand books into amazing packaging. Here’s a sneak peak above, but please go check out the link below for the whole process. It’s completely worth it, trust me! Definitely something I’d love to try as a DIY.

This is so groovy. You can get hardcover books by the box for free (or very near to) at thrift shops and yard sales. I have always wondered how they get the holes carved out so neatly? Seems I would just take all the pages out turn the book into a box. But this is why I am not a designer folks.
