Marking the Dimensions (Outer):

After getting the materials you require for the construction, the next step is to mark the outer lines on either cardboard or kraft sheet. Utilize the ruler and pencil to mark perfect measurements. The measurements can be taken according to your desire or wished size of the pyramid box packaging.It is suggested to keep in mind the size of the gift or items you want to pack in that pyramid box. This way, it would be easy to choose and cut the right dimensions of custom pyramid boxes. 

TIP 1: Double and triple check your measurements before you start cutting. Most often than not, our boxes don't come out right because of wrong or random measurements. 

Marking the Dimensions (Inner): 

After you are done marking the outer dimensions on your kraft sheet or cardboard, the next step is to mark the inner dimensions. You need to mark the triangles and arcs on the inside to make sure your box closes and opens up nicely. The method by which you should mark these triangles are: 

Firstly, you need to find the center of each triangle, so they are straight.

Using the ruler and pencil, make triangles on the inside of all the outer squares in such a way that the pointing edge of the triangles is pointing outside. Once the triangles are done, make an arc on the side of the triangles.

TIP 2: Making triangles the right way is necessary. Instead of making triangles directly on your kraft sheet or cardboard, firstly make them rough and then copy it on your actual sheet. 

Cutting the Packages:

Once you are done marking all the dimensions inside and out, you can either use a ruler and paper cutter to cut the outlines you marked to get your package into the desired triangular shape. Or you can use scissors instead of a paper cutter since it is very convenient. You need to cut the templates by using the arc that you marked by the sides of the triangles. After you are done cutting your sheet or board, you need to fold the sides together or score the sides so that gluing it will become easier and make you structure sturdy. 

Tip 3: We all know using scissors is much more convenient than the paper cutter, but it is better to cut the sheet or board with paper cutter since this cutter and ruler are much more precise than the scissor, which might mess up your measurements while cutting.

Gluing the Sides:

After you are done cutting the template and also have scored the sides of the templates, the final step would be to glue together the sides. You also need to punch two sides of the triangle out of four, to attach a ribbon to it. You have to glue three sides of the box together out of four instead of all four. 

Tip 4: Another mistake many people make while constructing these boxes is that they put the glue on the outside. Make sure you always put the glue on the inside as to not decrease the visual appeal of the packaging itself. 

Final Words

You can make these boxes on your own if you need some or if you require a lot of them, you can easily get Pyramid packaging UK for your gift packaging. Last but not least, the final tip is that you can place small flowers and chocolates, and the entire pyramid packaging you made would become a gift itself.
