Earlier box prototypes. On the left: full size. The lid was too tight to fit properly. It only closed because the paper was so flimsy. On the right: 50% scale. Adjusted the lid size so it fits.
Outer lid of the box.
Inner pocket where the guidebook sits. Tucks into the corners.
A sample of a page spread inside the guidebook. I wrote many detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to make a toy custom, and I want to make the entire guidebook.
The inside of the box. The dividers have been adjusted from the first two prototypes: instead of securing on the sides of the box, they secure on the bottom of the box. On the left: a sample of how someone could use the box. It does not come with the supplies; users are encouraged to collect their own supplies to put in the box.
The cuties that inspired this project. I bought a Barbie doll at a thrift store specifically to use for the product photos. I simply followed the steps that I wrote to paint on her new face. She also didn't come with any clothes, so I had to sew her a cute little outfit. I'm no seamster, but I'm very happy with how it turned out. This actually used to be a sock!
