6 Steps
1
Cut lengths of tape long enough to wrap around box lid and apply to parchment paper. Cut some (or all) strips in half, lengthwise, so they are 1 in. wide.
2
Apply tape in one direction as shown, mixing 1 in. wide and 2 in. wide pieces if desired.
3
Apply strips of tape perpendicular to the first set, creating a grid.
4
Cut square and rectangle pieces of tape in from a contrasting tape color to cover the areas where the strips of tape overlap on the box. Apply to box.
5
Cut 4 mm wide strips of tape and add to the box where desired.
6
Using the lid as a guide to match up the pattern, repeat the steps above on the sides of the box.
