Hey Christine!..Names change from place to place so would you mind discribing a bit about your box? I could think of several things that could be called a bloomin box--perhaps we can point you in the right direction if we know a tad more.

It is kind of hard to describe but I will try. When you open the box it had layers of Papers on each side. They stamped all over them and in on each paper you could put pictures. When it is opened it looked like a cross. Each layer was a little bit larger than the next.

Do you mean something like this? http://twopeasinabucket.kaboose.com/pg.asp?cmd=display&layout_id=685775

I can tell you how to make the box, but I'm not sure I could easily describe the lid/top. Let me know if this is what you are talking about.

If you PM me your addy I will snail mail you a simple box you can take apart and a template if what you are looking for is like the post Mary put above. My scout troop made them for a service project and I made a pattern to be used by the girls, I would be happy to share but I don't have it in an electronic version and don't have a scanner.

I made one of these for my grandson. Easy, fun project. We called it "Scrapbook in a Box."
