(We will go through the complete process for making the box as if it had not been pre-creased.)
To find the center:
Fold the paper in half from
bottom to top.
Unfold.
Then fold the paper in half from side to side. Unfold.

With the corners still folded in, fold the sides in to meet in the middle and crease.
Then unfold the sides and fold the top and bottom in to meet in the middle and crease.

When you have folded both ends in, it should look like this:
You have completed the bottom of your Treasure Box!

To make a top (lid) for the box, follow the exact same instructions, except for Slide #5, where you will need to fold in the sides and then the top and bottom so that they don’t quite meet in the middle, as shown here.

If you do that, the lid should fit neatly over the bottom of the treasure box.

Decorate your box and place some Scripture treasures inside.
Each day you can take a treasure (Scripture) out of your box and read it. You can also write down other verses you want to remember and place them in your treasure box.
