Abstract
A carton which may be ideally used as a gift box comprises a folded carton contained within the lid which ultimately closes the carton. The carton is formed from a blank having four panels which form the sides of the carton. Four end panels connected to the side panels may be folded together to form a bottom for the carton when in its assembled condition. The entire carton blank is folded to fit inside the lid. A transparent wrap, preferably a shrink wrap encloses the carton and any other wrapping paraphernalia within the lid.
