MAKE THE BOX OF YOUR
DREAMS - PART 2
Last time the deviant angular boxes were the subject of the workshop. This time boxes with concave and convex forms are on the menu.
All kinds of shapes are possible: most of the time the more difficult part is the construction of the lid.
This workshop will widen your possibilities of making the box of your dreams, as always using cardboard and paper.
We will offer you two models to make during these five days, which have many different details to learn and practice.
One model is a small 'teaspoon box', with a rectangular base and a lid with a convex top.
The other one is a 'pencil box'. The base has two straight and two partly convex sides. The lid has only two straight sides with a complete convex lid, with a concave shape (a dent) on top for the laying of writing instruments.
Both boxes have convex lids but, once learned the method of construction, the translation to concave shapes can be done quickly.
The first idea about the subject of this workshop was "boxes with round, concave & convex forms in the base or lid". We skipped the round forms, because they need a different approach of building.
The two convex boxes we will make, will already fill up completely the five days of the workshop.
Maybe once there will be a 'make the box of your dreams - part 3'.
This is an advanced workshop: to follow it experience in box making is required.
