Make a Small Book Box

Create an enchanting book-shaped box in this delightful 3-hour workshop! This clever little box looks like a miniature hardcover book but opens to reveal a hidden compartment—perfect for holding a ring, love note, small jewelry, or other precious keepsakes.

With Valentine's Day approaching, this makes a wonderfully romantic handmade gift, but it's equally suited for storing your own tiny treasures year-round. The whimsical design combines bookbinding techniques with box-making skills to create something truly special.

What You'll Learn:

• Box construction techniques
• Assembling pre-cut components for a polished result
• Covering techniques for a professional finish

What You'll Make: One book-shaped box (approximately 2.5" x 2.5") with interior compartment. All structural pieces are pre-cut so you can focus on assembly and finishing. Choose from our selection of decorative papers and book cloth to personalize your creation.

What's Included: All materials, pre-cut pieces, tools, and expert instruction. No prior experience necessary—this is a perfect introduction to book arts techniques!

Perfect For: Valentine's gift makers, jewelry lovers seeking unique storage, craft enthusiasts, or anyone wanting to create something functional and beautiful in an evening.
