would you like to make some small box's from freezer paper and fabric.?

You start with a square of fabric and a matching square of freezer paper.Simply Google origami box's with lids and begin to have fun.
the fabric is ironed onto the freezer paper before you begin to fold so do a few test runs first with copy paper.
or you can purchase a roll of 1200 thickness wall lining paper and cut out the squares and spray with adhesive and lay the fabric onto it.just remember that a lid is 1/4 inch larger square all round. Make sure that all creases are sharp and well pressed to help with the folding. paint or stamp the plain paper before starting to fold the box. cut out a square piece of card for the bottom of the box.s to help rigidity.add buttons and ribbons and fill with home made candy or a small gift.
Get the children or elderly involved around a table and have a lot of fun making your own original gift box's
glue Christmas wrapping paper onto the lining paper for even more fun and save your money.
Google for candy and cookie recipes.

Please list some specific websites. This Google search for the boxes has pictures of what you suggest here but clicking on them opens porn pages. I quit after 2 bad ones.
I have a box like you're suggesting that my daughter made as a teen. I haven't wanted to undo it to try my own. I like this project! Thank you.

Thank you for warning Cuties. I hope they see your post. For your own sake -- please run an anti-virus scan. Those sites are well known to harbor trojans and viruses. I suggest using the free Malwarebytes. Send me a PM if you need help. Hugs

Thank you. One of them that I clicked on had more individual choices of boxes and it was the second selection that was porn. I will rerun my anti-virus. Thanks.
