How to Draw a Tissue Box
Draw a tissue box in 12 easy steps, about 9 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the box front.
Step 1: The box front
A little below the middle of your paper draw a wide rectangle for the front of the box.
Tip A tissue box is a wide box with a slot on top.
Step 2: Two big eyes
On the front, a little above its middle, draw 2 big egg eyes. Colour a big black dot in each.
Step 3: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a U smile, and a small flat oval cheek beside each end of the smile.
Step 4: The top and side
From the top corners draw 2 slanted lines up right and join them. Draw the right side down.
Step 5: The slot
In the middle of the top draw a long flat oval for the slot.
Step 6: The tissue
Start at the slot's left end. Wiggle up in big bumps to a point, then down to its right end.
Step 7: Tissue folds
Inside the tissue draw 2 long gentle lines going up from the slot for the folds.
Step 8: Little flowers
In the top left and bottom right corners, draw a small circle with 5 round petals around it.
Step 9: Ground and sparkles
Draw a ground line under the box from left to right, and a sparkle in the air at each side.
Step 10: Yellow and pink
Go over your lines. Colour the petals yellow, then the flower middles and the cheeks pink.
Step 11: Sky blue front
Colour the front sky blue around the face and the flowers. Leave the eyes white.
Step 12: Blue top, grey slot
Colour the top and side blue and the slot dark grey. Leave the tissue white. Bless you!
