ABSTRACT:
A container, such as for a floral arrangement, is formed from a unitary die-cut sheet of material. The container has a core, defined by walls and a bottom and having an open top, and decorative panels extend from the walls. The sheet contains connected wall sections and decorative panel sections, the wall sections forming the walls and the panel sections folding together in pairs to form the decorative panels. There are at least two decorative panel sections between two adjacent wall sections, such that when the panel sections are folded together, the wall sections will be adjacent in the container core, and the panel formed by the panel sections will extend outward from the core. The bottom is formed by tabs on the wall sections which fold inward. In some embodiments, the container is collapsible to a substantially planar form. A method of folding the sheet to form the container includes the steps of folding together adjacent panel sections to form the decorative panels, folding the walls into the shape of the core, connecting each end of the unitary sheet, and folding the tabs inward to form the bottom of the core. The container is made watertight by treating the sheet, using a plastic sheet, or using a watertight liner attached to the inside of the container core or an insertable structure.
