Hinged Lid Box

- This tutorial shows you how to make a sturdy and decorative cardboard hinged lid box. This classic box has so many uses, including keeping your handmade books in. It would also make for a fun treasure box for your kids or a great gift box.
** BTW, I haven't made the tutorial yet about how to use the worksheets for this project. The current link in my video goes to the worksheet tutorial for the Slipcase. These are different worksheets, but how to use them is basically the same. **
The worksheets shown in the video are available on my website. These worksheets are available using either Imperial Measurements (inches) or Metric Measurements (millimeters).

If you're tired of cutting bookboard by hand (particularly the thicker bookboard used for making boxes) this inexpensive guillotine works wonderfully and is a real time and hand-saver: amzn.to/3L7i86c
It’s the one piece of equipment that I would rescue if my studio were to catch on fire. :)
Here is a great source for the bookboard, or binder's board, used to construct the box. You can get it in several different thicknesses, and you'll probably want a thick board (like this ~3mm board) so your box is nice and sturdy.

Here's a link to the soft weights you see me using in the video:

Also a great source for PVA adhesive:

If you are making your own bookcloth, here's a source for the rice paper you'll need:

You can also buy wheat starch to make your bookcloth paste. This has the gluten removed which makes it a bit more resistant to insects. (Not that I've ever had an issue with insects eating my books :)

If there were DIY Tutorial Awards, this one would win! It must’ve taken a lot of time to film and edit. Thanks so much for sharing!
Brilliantly clear instructions--as everyone says! THANK YOU for your extra effort!
Ive done several bookbinding and box making in person courses but your videos and instructions are so much better and clearer. Some great tips too. Thank you so much!
I think you’re an amazing instructor! Please continue creating videos!! PS- thank you for not adding music!!
I've been unsuccessfully looking for a box this style with a specific measurement for weeks. Looks like I'll be making my own boxes from now on. Thank you for this tutorial 😊😊😊
Awesome. Good Luck!!
This is absolutely outstanding. I needed exactly this video. I don't know of I'll ever get around to making the decorative book box I need, but this is "THE TUTORIAL VIDEO" to learn how to do it - if there ever was one. Way to go.
Awwww, thank you so much! 🥰
This is such a good tutorial. Thanks for actually explaining things instead of just playing free use health spa music over the top.
Lol! You're welcome!
I'm not exactly sure how I got here but I really enjoy you make this box. Your instructions were so clear and concise. You're a great instructor. 🥰
Thank you so much!
Ive been looking for a tutorial in english for the longest time. I literally scrolled over a video on instagram in spanish which lead me down this rabbit hole. But im finally here.
One of the best demonstration craft videos I have ever seen. Thank you
Thank you so much. Your comment made my day, week, month....❤
Thank you for such an informative and easy to follow instructional video. Here's to another new skill set that I didn't know I needed, but I am looking forward to exploring! 👏🌟
WOW....impressive...not only how pretty it is....but your instructions are AMAZING!!!. Guessing you maybe a teacher or engineer. THANK YOU
Thank you. Great video. I am looking since two years for a kind of box like this on the market as I will need many of this, but here in Bulgaria no one makes and sell such boxes. So Thanks your video I will do the boxes I am looking for myself.
All the best.
Thank you for a great video with lots of helpful hints!!!! I am sure that the worksheets with be a great asset to my Hinged Lid Box journey!!!
You continue to amaze me. Your teaching is so easy to understand. One of the things I really enjoy about your presentation is that you stick to the subject and make it easy to enjoy and follow. Thanks for your generosity in providing the temp,antes, as well. Hope to make a few before the holidays!!!!🙏
Thank you so much! Good luck with your holiday box making. :)
Im so glad i stumbled upon this channel!
Very clear and concise. Thank you.
This was a great tutorial. Your instructions were very helpful and easy to follow. Thank you for sharing.😊
Yay for another tutorial from Kristi :). This one will definitely come in handy!
thank you
The tips within are incredibly valuable and helpful to me - great video thank you!!
Thank you! I'm working on a video right now about adding dividers to a box, so stay tuned! :)
Excellent tutorial. Thank you again for another great project.
Thank you! :)
😅... You make it seem so effortless. Thank you very much for all your great tutorials. ... You know what I'd love to see you make? A cover that uses sponge (a flat piece between the bare board and cover paper) in order to give the final cover more volume and dimension. Also, some embossing!!! You are very meticulous, so watching your videos is very insightful. Thanks again. Saludos desde Costa Rica. 😘🇨🇷
Thank you so much for the kind words, Alexandra! The technique you describe is not something that I'm familiar with, but it sounds interesting so I'll look into it. You never know - there might be a video down the road. :)
@@KristiWarrenHandmadeBooks Just trying to provide ideas. 😊 I'd like to see more volume and I think it could be done. Hope you can think of something (not just sponge but something to fluff It up). See you soon. 😉
@@alexandracordero6838 I'm always open to something new. I'll work on this and see what I can figure out. :)
Muy buen trabajo. Felicidades y gracias por compartir. Está hermosa esta caja.!!!
Thank you! :)
La verdad es que es maravilloso ver cómo lo vas construyendo y cómo explicas todo! ¡Me encanta!
👏👏👏
Disfruto viéndolo...¡como si viera una película! 😊
¡Besos!
Kristi, would you please consider showing how to make a large wedding album (the type actual photos would be added to using photo corners) and also with glassine photo protector sheets between each page (I think they’re called interleaves or interleaving). I need to make one for my best friend’s son’s wedding and the one I make needs to be very special. I also considering adding an inlaid custom plaque to the front. I would be very grateful and happy to compensate you for your help.
I am totally new to this. Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial 😊
You are so welcome!
Thank you especially for downloadable templates.
You're welcome! :)
This is great!
Love! Thank you! Great Tutorial! Just what I was looking for!
Glad it was helpful!
Have you a video on how to make a fastener for the box? I'd be very interesting in that, as I like boxes to sometimes stand up without worrying about them opening.
Thank you so much for such a detailed video and the worksheets.
You are so welcome! :)
Fantastic, thank you!
thanks! exactly what i was looking for :)
Thank you for being so thorough!! If I wanted this to have a magnetic closure (without adding the extra flap that would cover the right side of the box if that makes sense) - how would I do this and with what kind of magnet? Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Great tutorial! I am so happy to have found this and I was able to get lots of tips from you. You made it seem easy and I thank you for the tutorial that you provided. Thanks so much for sharing!
You are welcome! Good luck with your project. :)
Thank you so much for taking the time to make and share this video! I have a question - we use mm not inches in New Zealand - I see you are using 3mm book board - is the spine spacer 6 or 5mm please? I’m having trouble converting 3/16” into mm. Many thanks.
Hi Tracey - 3/16ths is 4.76mm, so a 5mm spacer would work fine. There are lots of free inches-to-mm conversion tools on the internet, if you run into this issue again. I have metric worksheets on my website for this box, but I'm sure there are other places in the video (like this spacer size) where I only speak Imperial. :) Sorry about that. :))
@@KristiWarrenHandmadeBooks Thank you so much for taking the time to reply, it's really appreciated.
You inspired me with this project! Thank you for such great instructions AND the guides! But I have questions! What would the difference be between acid-free chipboard of approximately the same thickness, and book board? Are they two completely different things? Would I be doomed to failure if I used the chipboards instead?
Thank you for the kind words. :) Concerning your question, chipboard and bookboard are indeed two different things. First, I didn't even know you could find acid-free chipboard! If you have, good for you! But bookboard (or Davey board, or Binder's board) is much higher quality, and made differently. It is made in layers and is much denser than chipboard. It will warp less and hold up much longer.
Now, having said all that, I am the kind of person who likes to experiment, :) so if I were interested in using chipboard I would try a project just to see what happens. Warping would be my biggest concern, assuming the acid-free part has been solved. If you do test it, let us know what you find out! :)
What’s the type of paper to cover the boxes? Thank you in advance.
Hi this may be a dumb question but for the original measurements, it says Length (W) and Width (L), is that correct?
All fixed. Thanks Stephanie! 💙
How do you know what size gap to leave between the board pieces at the hinge? Is it equal to the thickness of the board you’re using? If you’re using 2mm thick chipboard, would the gap be 2mm wide? This video is amazing! Thank you!
No, you don't want the gap to be the same thickness as your bookboard. If you do that the lid will never close correctly. The hinge needs to accommodate two thicknesses of bookcloth - one inside and one outside.
The bookboard I'm using in the video is 2mm, and the gap is 3/16th (4.7ish mm) so you want to at least double the thickness. Hope that helps. :)
(And thanks very much for the kind words about the video. 💜)
@@KristiWarrenHandmadeBooks , thank you so much, that’s perfect!
What kind of glue are you using?
PVA "thick" glue to construct the box. Regular PVA glue to apply all of the paper and bookcloth. This is all described in the video.
Hi. I am a bit confused by the measurements/worksheets. How do we know what measurements to put if the spaces on the worksheets are blank? Maybe I missed some info? I was wanting to try to do smaller versions of these boxes but am not sure how to figure out the correct measurements.
Update: I saw the video for the clamshell box worksheets but I don't have anything specific that I want to put in the box. Do I just grab a book or something that is around the size of the box I want to make?
I guess. lol. If you aren't making it for anything specific then your beginning measurements (which are critical for filling out the worksheets) are whatever you want them to be.
Let God bless you!
How could I do this box but big and deep? Your video was fantastic explained it very well 😁
Hi Gemma - Download the worksheets described at the beginning of the video and you’ll be able to make a box any size you want! :)
@@KristiWarrenHandmadeBooks hi Kristi I may sound so silly here but I'm struggling on what to buy eg i have put book board in Google and it doesn't bring it up I'm wanting to make a gift box eg like what you see for bridemaids as everyone who sell then it's like £8/10 each for a small one and I need 7 in total want it around l30x w25 x d13cm but here in UK we don't have shops that you can get this from so it's all online 😭
@@gemmal6676 Hi Gemma - If you open the description under the video you'll see lots of online amazon links to the supplies that I use. For example, the bookboard: amzn.to/2XxAVmT
How to turn a box with a flip lid into smaller ones?
The worksheets (link in the description) allow you to enter any dimensions you want, so it's easy to make them large, small - whatever you want.
The page for the spine bookcloth etc is missing on the website! There is 1 thru 9 and the rest isn't there
I've checked this in Firefox, Safari and Chrome and all 6 worksheets are there (3 in imperial measurements, 3 in metric) so I'm not sure what to tell you. Maybe try using a different browser than the one you normally use?
@@KristiWarrenHandmadeBooks When I used Edge, it was there. on my Chrome, there was a blank space there! Weird. Thanks for the help on making my box. I have made boxes/mini albums a lot so following your video I was able to figure out the measurements myself, but the worksheets make it super easy! Thanks for the tutorial. I like your process much better than a lot I have seen. :)
This looks more like a math test.
When it comes to making nice boxes, accuracy matters.
I appreciate all the effort you went to to make the video and the worksheets, but boy those worksheets were complicated. It would have been easier to understand if you had used the common terms L W H instead of a b c. Then just say the margins to add or subtract depending on if it is the lid or spine. But I have such a headache doing the abcdefgh...aa all in my head
