If you’re looking for a unique and fun way to wrap gifts this holiday season, why not try making your own gift boxes? You can design and cut out custom gift boxes that are sure to impress everyone. I’ve started you out with a collection of new gift boxes for you to make! These gift boxes are perfect for giving a personalized gift to your loved ones. I’ve included different gift box designs including a tumbler, treat, and box with top design. I’m sure you’ll find a DIY gift box that is just perfect for the gift you’re giving away.
Watch the full step-by-step video showing you exactly how to create your own gift boxes with a VIP pass to Maker Academy Weekend 2022!
To help you assemble these gift boxes, I’ve also included PDF reference sheets with labels for each box and their parts! It’s a good idea to have it up on your screen or to print a copy for the box you’re assembling. This collection includes a Baked Goods Box, a Box with a Top, and a Tumbler Box. Each box has a version with Score lines that requires a scoring wheel or stylus and a no-score version with dashed cut lines that only needs the Fine-Point Blade.
If you’d like to customize your boxes more, check out the bonus file in the SVG folder. It has a scalloped edge for the Box with a Top, a snowflake, cookie shapes, and “enjoy” and “season’s eatings” in a pretty script font. You can cut these flourishes out of fancy cardstock or vinyl and stick them on, or slice them from the boxes themselves. Get creative!
