Eco printing on clamshell box

Lee and I were lucky enough to represent the Canberra Bookbinders' Guild on 666 Radio.  Melanie Tait who hosts the Canberrafile was delightful and put us both at ease.  The message we wanted to get across was about our upcoming exhibition and the diversity of the exhibits from fine bookbinding to confronting art.
Because my little eco book was chosen for the invitation I was invited to bring it along with me when we met with Melanie.  I needed then to dress it up a little by presenting it in a box.  What fun was that!

This is the first time I had made a clamshell box and not only that, I was working from an instruction manual using my own measurements.  Just the type of challenge I like.
I used eco printing paper to cover the box and I am very pleased with the final result.

Calmshell boxes are bit of expensive than regular card-stock boxes. However in terms of aesthetics nothing can be compared with them.

I have to agree Max. Clamshell boxes always look a little bit special.
