ABSTRACT:
A decorative container is constructed from a substantially rectangular parallelepiped, such as a recycled cardboard milk carton, by tracing first and second guide lines around three common sides of the carton. The first guide line is disposed substantially parallel to and directly above the bottom of the carton, while the second guide line is spaced toward a peaked top of the carton from the first guide line and includes arcuate portions bowed toward the top of the carton on a parallel pair of the three sides of the carton on which the first and second guide lines are disposed. A third guide line extends along the same pair of parallel sides as the arcuate portions and is substantially parallel to the fourth side of the carton so as to extend between the second guide line and the top of the carton, and includes a flap of the peaked top of the carton which extends from the fourth side so as to form a continuous surface from the bottom of the carton to the peak of the top. Cutting along the guide lines and subsequent bending of the fourth side over the arcuate portions of the second guide line, with the attachment of the fourth side to the adjacent portions of the other three sides of the carton, forms the container, which can then be decorated to become a trinket box, gift box, and the like.
