When preparing for the wedding, it is very important not to miss out on any small detail. All brides are very scrupulous about their outfit and are so busy with it that sometimes they forget to do or buy something. After all, it is so important to look beautiful, with a needle. Just imagine shoes and a handbag matched to the dress; hair styled in beautiful hairstyle... Everything seems to be in place, but ... something is missing. Going through everything that was prepared and bought, I remember a small, but very necessary thing - a box for the wedding rings of the bride and groom. She, too, must correspond to the newlyweds and their image.

We will understand the issue in detail

When buying a box for rings, it is very important to imagine the future celebration. If you want to arrange a grand walk with a lot of money and chic outfits, then the accessory must be selected in the same style. In this case, this little thing needs to be stylish, with all kinds of beads and so on. And if your goal is to save a little, then buy the appropriate box for rings.

Only when choosing accessories, try to make them look harmoniously with your other decorations at the holiday. For example, you do not need to buy a ring box for a wedding in the form Christmas tree toys, in this style, it will be beautiful when it snows outside, and the President wishes everyone a Happy New Year.

Order or buy?

The easiest way, of course, is to go to the store. jewelry and buy any box you like or consult with consultants, and they will definitely pick something up for you. There is only one drawback - this is the assortment. In such stores, as a rule, the choice of boxes is limited, and you will be forced to choose the best from what the sellers have to offer.

Very a good option is to order it. However, for this you need to find good master and explain to him, or rather describe what you want to see in the end result. You can find an experienced person who specializes in making rings boxes using the Internet.

We do it ourselves

But this is a wonderful chance to try your hand and use your wild imagination in order to make such a little thing. After all, you must agree that the box for will look much more interesting than the purchased one.

To make it you will need:

We make

So, let's begin! First, print out your drawing found on the World Wide Web, or, as a last resort, redraw it. Attach the drawing to the cardboard and push the edges of the future box along the lines with "any tool". Try to keep everything smooth, otherwise it will turn out ugly.

Next, we arm ourselves with scissors and cut out the resulting pattern from the cardboard, form a box for rings from it and glue it. Now, use your imagination and decorate your masterpiece the way you want. Apply all kinds of ribbons and bows, beads and rhinestones, as well as multi-colored flowers. All in your hands. And believe me, a handmade box for wedding rings will be better than the same ones that are sold in the store.

Today we will consider how to do gift box for the ring to your girlfriend. It's pretty simply and does not take much time.

Tools and materials that we will use:

• Thick colored paper.
• Metal ruler
• Finely sharpened pencil
• Sharp scissors (preferably manicure)
• Ribbon (or string)

So let's get started.

We draw a drawing of a box and a lid, as shown in picture # 1. The first thing to start with is to draw the base of the box. The sizes are arbitrary - it all depends on whether you need a large box or not. A 5x5cm box is ideal for the ring. We also draw the base of the lid, BUT here you need to be careful and make it 3 millimeters larger. Those. if your box has a base of 5x5cm, then the base of the lid should be 5.3 mm. Otherwise, the lid will not fit on the box, or if you do larger size than 3 mm, there will be a large gap. We draw the sides, which will determine the height of the box. It all depends on the size of the ring. Therefore, we select an arbitrary one, based on given parameters rings. Again we repeat the drawing of the side, but reduced by 1-2mm. Those. we should get as in the picture №1.

We make punching under the ruler with scissors along the length of the lines. This is so that the folds are neat and even, as shown in picture # 2. Then we cut off all unnecessary. - workpiece No. 3 and after cutting we bend the box. The next step is gluing the sides and lid, see picture # 4.

Next stage- It is necessary to carefully coat all the bends with glue, as can be seen in the picture # 1 and # 2.

We support the box on both sides so that we get an angle of 90 degrees. We bend the second side of the box and lid in the same way! We look like in Figure 3. In order for the sides to fit snugly and there are no gaps, they can be smoothed with the tip of scissors or the angle of the ruler. The corners should be especially checked. Figure №4.

A jewelry box is simply necessary for a true lady, because every time the selection of earrings, chains and rings takes a lot of time, and, as luck would have it, they are always entangled and lie in different places. The stores offer a variety of boxes, exclusive, with amazing finishes, but their cost is quite high. Therefore, we propose to consider the option of how the box for rings with your own hands will look like. It can be created from improvised items that still collect dust on your shelves and cabinets.

Storage rules

The picture from the movies, when the chest opens, and there are mixed beads, necklaces, rings - it looks beautiful, but is not correct in principle. This is not the way to treat jewelry. Each type of jewelry has its own immutable rules:

• The storage area for jewelry should be cool, dark and dry.
• It is advisable to store different types separately from each other, only in this case gems they will not be able to scratch gold, the softness of which depends on the sample.
• It is worth knowing that silver is afraid of moisture. Therefore, put an activated carbon tablet in an organizer or ring box with your own hands. It will absorb excess moisture and retain the original shine of the metal.
• Jewelry made of gold and platinum cannot be stored in cardboard boxes, because they contain sulfur. And precious metals react to such a neighborhood with spots and darkening. Only put gold and platinum products in wooden ring boxes with your own hands.
• It is best to store necklaces, chains and necklaces in a straightened state, hanging on special stands.
• Leather cords with pendants or pendants can be kept rolled up in a ring, thus the cord does not deform or twist. Jewelers advise to store each such piece of jewelry separately in zip bags. Then the metal does not oxidize, is not scratched by stones and does not get confused in a bunch of chains.
• Gold-plated jewelry requires special attention. They must be removed at night, stored in separate velvet bags.

Criterias of choice

Before you learn how to make a ring box with your own hands, let's find out what criteria are required by jewelers. The size of the box for do-it-yourself rings and earrings should correspond to the amount of content:

• A multi-tiered structure is suitable if you need to place a large number of small items to different departments. For example, give one tier for rings, place earrings on the second, and a necklace on the third.
• If you have a few jewelry in your arsenal that require special storage conditions, then you should stop at a small box.
• In order to prevent small items from accidentally scattering, or so that small children do not use jewelry as toys, it is better to give preference to models with locks. By the way, in the old days, such boxes were made with a secret device, how to open it - only the hostess knew.

Important! One more nuance. When choosing material for a jewelry box with your own hands, consider the style of its design. It is worth considering that it will become not only a convenient storage place, but also an interesting element of the decor of your room. It will be great if its style solution will harmoniously fit into your interior.

The basis of the box - preparatory work

In search of an answer to the question of how to make a box for rings with your own hands, you should know that most of the products are based on the most common wooden or paper structure with divisions of various sizes. Therefore, first of all, we will learn how to create it from thick cardboard, at least 2 mm thick.

We also need the following materials:

• PVA glue. You can opt for the products of the company "Lakra" or "Henkel". They can be found in the most ordinary hardware store. Their main advantage is that they have a thick consistency and do not turn yellow over time.
• Also in the hardware store, do not forget to purchase masking tape. Better to take a width of 4 cm.
• It is also worth purchasing Moment-Crystal glue.
• An ordinary Whatman paper.
• A fabric that is 100% cotton.
• Tapes of 15 cm in the amount of two pieces. They will serve as a stopper for the lid of a DIY jewelry box.

Prepare the tools in advance so as not to be distracted by looking for them in the process:

• A wide knife with segmented blades, it is better to take a construction knife.
• Scissors.
• An unnecessary piece of linoleum.
• Ruler.
• Synthetic glue brush.
• Pencil, sharpener, eraser
• Stack to smooth all surfaces and corners.
• A cloth to wipe off the glue immediately on the work surface.

Drawing and cutting parts

In order to create a box for rings with your own hands, you will need cardboard blanks. When laying out, try to place parts of the same width side by side. The framework will consist of the following elements:

• The inner bottom of the box - 1 piece. Rectangle measuring 9 x 16 cm.
• Long wall - 2 pieces. Rectangles 6 by 16 cm.
• Cover - 1 piece. Size 9.7 x 17.5 cm.
• Bottom - 1 piece. Size 9.7 x 17.5 cm.
• Spine - 1 piece. Size 6.4 x 17.5 cm.
• Support - 2 pieces. Size 2.8 by 8.6 cm.
• The site is a detail. Size 5.6 x 8.6 cm.
• Partition - 1 piece. Size 5.5 by 8.6 cm.
• Short wall - 2 pieces. Size 6 by 8.6 cm.

Important! Before you start cutting out the details of the ring box with your own hands, you should know one nuance: the edge of the cardboard that is produced from the factory is not even. Therefore, you need to either trim the edge or process the already cut parts with fine sandpaper.

Base assembly:

• We glue the walls of the future ring box with our own hands from top to bottom. We apply glue to the part of the long wall from below on a cut of cardboard, as toothpaste, generously enough.

Important! Then it is not difficult to remove the surplus, but if there is not enough glue, the box will be wobbly.

• Now let's move on to the short walls. We apply glue already on two sides in order to connect the part to both the bottom and long parts.
• Next, we mark the location of the partition and glue it in, apply glue to the sections on three sides.
• After the glue dries, we strengthen the ribs of the ring box with our own hands using masking tape.
• Glue a small piece of masking tape to the junction of the wall and bottom. And immediately we gently smooth this place with a stack. This is important, otherwise the tape will simply disappear.
• Thus, we gradually strengthen all the joints on the outside, and then on the inside.

Important! Don't forget about the ring pad. To make these jewelry easy to get out of the box, the bottom of this compartment should be higher than the main part. To do this, glue the supports to the walls and fix the second bottom from above.

Cover creation:

1. We glue the blank for the lid of our ring box with our own hands from the front and seamy side cloth.
2. During work, do not forget to glue the label so that the box for rings with your own hands can be conveniently opened by pulling it.
3. We put marks in the middle of the short wall and in the middle of the sides of the roof. We glue the tapes for the stopper to these places.

Important! Make sure that the base of these parts is well fixed, so that when you open the box again, the lid does not fall off, since the stoppers were weakly glued.

Ring Rollers

Now let's move on to an equally interesting task - how to make rollers for rings in a box. To do this, you need 6 pieces of felt 20 cm long and 5.5 cm wide:

• We roll the felt sheets into loose rolls and fix them with glue-moment.
• We wrap the rolls on top with a cloth - either in the main color of the box for rings with our own hands, or in a contrasting one.
• We fix the fabric from below using the same glue-moment.

Important! It is not necessary to glue over the entire area, otherwise the fabric will become rigid.

• Now we apply a narrow strip of PVA to each roll and glue it in place. These parts must fit tightly to each other so that the ring or earrings inserted into them are tightly fixed.

Important! The question of how to make rollers for rings in a box can also be solved using foam rubber. The scheme for working with this material is similar.

Decorating

Now that the base is ready and the task of how to make the rollers for the rings in the box is solved, it's time to turn on your imagination and start decorating our creation. Next, we will only talk about the most common ways to decorate ring boxes with your own hands:

1. In order to decorate the finished product in decoupage style, you need to choose a napkin with beautiful pattern... The element of the pattern that you want to see as a decoration must be cut along the contour and glued to the lid using PVA glue. When it's dry, cover the top of the box with varnish to hold the paper in place.
2. To create a Shabby chic style box, you will need lace, fabric in a delicate flower, decorative beads and beads. The walls of the box can be pasted over with one type of fabric, the lid with another. Create a composition of lace and beads on top, and glue a long string of beads around the perimeter of the side walls.
3. Decorating the ring box with your own hands can be done in the kanzashi style. This will require many meters of tape, preferably in two colors. The work begins with the formation of kanzashi petals. To do this, they are bent at the desired angle, the edges are melted over the candle. They have to stick together to flatten the flower. You will need about a dozen such parts. Then they are strung on a thread, alternating colors. Further, the ends of the thread are tied, and the petals are straightened. In the center of the future box, you need to spread glue in order to firmly press the flower. Then drip glue in the center of the flower. This is necessary for attaching rhinestones or beads.
4. Marvelous simple technique quilling implies curling paper strips to create decor. It is convenient to twist the spirals with a toothpick. Having made several blanks from different colors, glue them into stripes. Then long columns are formed, to which the aforementioned strips are glued, and these blanks are used to decorate the ring box with their own hands. It is desirable to decorate the upper part with flowers. For this, multi-colored stripes of twisted spirals are connected in a special way.
5. Another way that will require careful preparation is the design of the box. polymer clay in a mosaic style. To begin with, you will need to prepare the details of the mosaic from clay in such a way that they fit snugly against each other on the casket. Then the elements need to be toned. in different shades and bake it in the most ordinary oven. After - glue the entire surface of the ring box with blanks with your own hands.

Important! If these methods seem too complicated for you, then first you can try to paste over the details of the product with a beautiful fabric or wrapping paper, being careful and removing any excess adhesive immediately. Lace, beads, large stones and rhinestones.
