Boxes but Not for Books

I love handmade boxes — I’ve made a fair share of my own: a large one to keep the proofs of all my letterpress prints, a clamshell to protect one of my favorite books, a hinged box for a board game I made about my Dad… So of course I was immediately drawn to Maggie Hallam’s boxes, like the pencil box below with a math and number theme. Be sure to check out her Etsy shop, where she has more boxes for various uses.

  1. Nicely done! I love the details: recessed magnet and contrasting edging. Boxes are definitely an art form, all those lines converging in space!
