Chloe Ferris: Week 12 Box

For this project I used BoxMaker to create a 6x6x6 box. It is a decorative box, meant to be used to store personal items in. Each side face of the box features a decorative cutout, based on a stained glass leaf design. The removable lid has a circular flower cutout, to make it easier to lift the lid off of the box. The box was printed on 1-ply cardboard, and was very easy to assemble.

To create the designs, I used a series of curves that I trimmed to each other to make one continuous piece, so it would not fall through the hole. This was then rotated and copied to the different faces of the box, to mix up the design a bit. On the lid, I created a teardrop petal shape with curves, and then used ArrayPolar to cast 7 of them around a central circle.
