Learn how to make 3D Paper Letters to use as unique home decor or fun gift boxes! Decorating with 3D letters instantly personalizes a room with words, initials, or names! Sometimes it's hard (and expensive!) to find all the right letters in stores. Many of you have asked how to make 3D letters with paper, so I designed an entire collection! These uppercase 3D paper letters, numbers, and symbols have a secret: they're boxes! I love papercraft box projects since they combine creativity and function. My collection includes the full paper alphabet and numbers 0-9! These large 3D letters would look perfect spelling words in a craft room or as initials in a bedroom.
