Diagonal-fold tuck-bottom gift box / LETTER
A good fit for your idea?
Letter and A4 preserve the component dimensions. Choose the sheet you will print, not a different object size.
Materials and construction
Plain paper for a first trial, a ruler, scissors and a blunt scoring tool; adult help for internal cuts.
Before making a batch
Measure the 50 mm reference and at least two named panel dimensions.
Assemble an empty plain-paper trial; record closure, seam, clearance and material behavior.

About this file
- Instruction pages
- 2
- Orientation
- Portrait
4 wall panels, each 34 mm wide; height between main end folds 52 mm; seam flap 8 mm.
From file to finished page
- Cut the perimeter and score all marked panel and flap hinges.
- Fold the four walls into a square tube. Glue the 8 mm shaded side flap behind the first wall and keep the tube square while it dries.
- Cut the two receiving slits in the bottom flaps. Fold the two slotted flaps inward first, then fold the other two flaps over them and insert each 10.2 mm tip into the opposite 12.24 mm slit.
- Pre-fold the diagonal bottom creases before tucking the tips. Assemble this version as a tuck-bottom carton; the shaded diagonal areas do not establish a tested automatic pop-open mechanism. Keep them unglued for this assembly.
- Fold the three short top flaps inward first. Fold the long flap across the opening and tuck its plain end inside the opposite wall. Open and close the empty carton without forcing the flap.
