Instructions:

Step 1:

Lightly flatten a toilet paper roll.

Step 2:

Round the edges with a pair of sharp scissors.

Step 3:

Unfold a napkin and cut it in half.

Step 4:

Glue one side of the toilet paper roll and stick it onto the napkin, lining it up with the bottom edge.

Step 5:

Glue the up-facing side of the toilet paper roll and roll it onto the napkin above it.

Step 6:

Glue the up-facing side one more time, and roll it onto the napkin above it.

Step 7:

Cut off the excess napkin.

Step 8:

Cut slits on the napkin on each side of the toilet paper roll.

Step 9:

Glue the tabs of the napkin on each side and stick them on the inside of the toilet paper roll.

Step 10:

Fold the side edges of the toilet paper roll to form the sides of the box. Fold one side in first by pressing down with your thumbs, and then fold the other side over it.

Step 11:

Before you close your final side, put your mini gift in the box.

Step 12:

Tie on a cute ribbon, and voilà! Your perfect little present is ready to be gifted.
