Place the template on one side of the pizza box. Make sure that the box you use is larger than the boomerang itself. It should also be clean and not messy with the pizza oil and remains. Since you will be using the boomerang, it should be clean and free of grease.

Draw the boomerang shape on the box using the template. Cut out this tracing using a cutter/knife/scissor. Use a sharp cutting tool to avoid jagged cutting. After you cut out the first boomerang, trace out the shape again on the other side of the pizza box. Create a boomerang out of it too. From a box you can create two boomerangs out of it.

Functionally the boomerang is ready to use. However, you can make it more fun and attractive by decorating it with colours. Draw shapes and logos on it according to your choice using crayons and markers. You can also use stickers for the purpose.
