Make and decorate your own small gift box! These simple templates from krokotak.com make for a fun, simple way to make your own gift boxes! Just cut out the template, fold it up and decorate it any way you choose! If you love it so much when you are done, you could even make it an ornament and hang it on your tree!

Included Materials:

  • 3 gift box templates
  • 2 glitter glue pens
  • 1 piece of ribbon
  • 1 bow

Instructions:

  1. Cut along the outside of the box template.
  2. Fold the lines of the middle square (which will make up the sides of the box)
  3. Glue the small tab to the inside of the fourth square.
  4. Fold in the two smaller tabs for the bottom.
  5. Fold in the two larger tabs.
  6. Glue the large bottom tab to the other large bottom tab.
  7. Cut along the dotted line of the top two tabs (with the gingerbread cookie, tree or ornament), making sure not to cut that picture off entirely.
  8. Fold the small top tabs in.
  9. Fold the large top tabs in, connecting the cookie, tree or ornament using the small section you cut.
  10. Finish decorating your gift box!
