I was so impressed when I saw this site! Instructables has instructions (step-by-step, with pictures) for how to do just about anything you can think of, with everything submitted by its readers. While some are plain fun and silly, there’s practical household repair things and a whole bunch of crafty projects. I typed in a search for “box” and the list included things like making a giant cardboard castle for a children’s birthday party, how to make an earring box, and this fun photo cube made from family pictures.

What a great place to spend a few minutes (to hours) browsing!
