How to make a doodle pyramid box
I'll show you in this lens how you can make a small pyramid box decorated with beautiful doodle pattern.
I hope you'll have fun with this little tutorial.
You need
Paper
Thicker paper will look better and of course your box will become more stable.
Pens
Your printer does not handle thick paper well?
Test to glue paper together before you glue your drawing on an other paper. Some glue causes wrinkles in the paper.
Pyramid Box Template
Right click with your mouse on the image and save it to your harddrive.
Open it in a graphic application, change it to a size of your choice and print it.
Start decorating your box
Always start with simple lines
Add a few simple lines to add some shapes to the sides of the box.
If you want to - you can decorate the bottom too.
Continue with drawing small pattern
Start with adding different pattern to each shape
Draw more pattern to fill all shapes
The first side is finished.
Draw pattern for the second side of the box
Continue with drawing different pattern
Add more pattern
The third side of the pyramid box is finished
Start last side
Finished
