Description
An archival box is what you put a rare and valuable old thing in to protect it from being in contact with harmful materials. I've recently become the owner of a family treasure, a 19th century German Luther Bible once owned by my great-great-grandmother.

It's not expensive to buy a pre-made archival box. But sometimes you want to add that personal touch, or make a box that's exactly the right dimensions for your item. Here's how I made my archival box from a single sheet of polypropylene.
