A simple box turned backgammon storage box

Where do you put your games? In a box? Well, why not make that box, also a game.

Here I created a backgammon storage box from this IKEA box, the SMÅRASSEL. Of course, the box has room for all my other board games too.

I purchased this decal but with some vinyl and straight edges you can make your own game board.
