House-shaped favor 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.

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

  1. Cut the perimeter and score all marked panel and flap hinges.
  2. 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.
  3. Fold two opposite bottom flaps inward, then fold the other pair over them. Glue the overlapping bottom areas and let the empty carton dry on a flat surface.
  4. Cut the two rectangular top slots. Fold the triangular roof panels inward and bring the two taller slotted panels together. Pass a short ribbon through the aligned slots and tie loosely to close; the paper top is decorative, not a carrying handle.
Printing and use notes

Nominal drawing dimensions are not a tested usable-capacity, load, mailing, food-contact or archival specification.

Do not place valuable, wet, hot or breakable items in an unreviewed paper prototype.
