    I can't wait to try out your tutorial. I love the square box tissues and since we are a family with allergies, tissues are part of our decor in almost every room. Now I can finally make them fit in by creating my own personalized covers. Thanks so much. When I make and post I'll give you credit and a link on my blog.
