Remember Shrinky Dinks?


Yup, that good old drawing and shrink'em thing from the 70's?

Paper Bon-Bon box


Found a scanned template for these bon-bon box. So I imported into Illustrator CS and just line drawn the vector graphics around them.
You'll need a sharp exacto knife to cut them out. You can tie them up using twine or ribbon. But yeah, you'll need a color printer. Other ideas, color papers or patterned papers will work too.
