[QUOTE="moreotherstuff, post: 190693, member: 56"]I decided to give my niece an ostrich egg for Christmas. Probably a dorky gift, but what do I know? As part of this I decided to make a special box to hold it. I made the box of the heavy single ply cardboard I frequently use when re-framing pictures, and held the pieces together with tissue paper inside and out. [ATTACH=full]53776[/ATTACH] Then I scrounged about a million pictures from online, edited the heck out out of them, added captions and used them to wallpaper all the surfaces. [ATTACH=full]53777[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]53778[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]53779[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]53780[/ATTACH] It turned out remarkably well for a first (and only) attempt. I've got a bunch of straw colored construction paper that I'm going to shred to make a nest inside for the egg.[/QUOTE]
