So I have been a Pixie in, what seems like, perpetual motion, I got lots of boring jobs jobbed yesterday, but I also got to test out box template number 2 (which appeared in the Grotto while I was away at the weekend).
It is brilliant, and also extremely aesthetically pleasing (to me...I know odd pixie!). It's clear acrylic or perspex (...is there a difference?) with cut slots for my scalpel and fold grooves too!
I was especially thrilled as I have to make up several boxes to flat pack and snail mail for booties which have wended their way into a friend's sister's shop...
So cut, cut, score, groove, fold, stick and repeat, so much easier and more time efficient than having to hand measure everything (did you spot it yet?). The new double sided tape I bought is lovely to use too, no fiddling around for ages trying to detach the backing, just a quick flick and tadaaaaah sticky surface...
I had 4 beautifully constructed, identical boxes on my table... before I realised they should still be flat...
Ahh well that will be one of today's problems.
