Choose your favorite and go to work on surprising the people you care about with a thoughtful present.
Cardboard Christmas Gift Box
This tutorial will show you how to make basic cardboard Christmas boxes. You may make a lovely box to carry a special gift inside with a few simple things and a few steps.
Materials:
- Scissors and / or cutter
- Pencil and paints
- Rule
- Silicone
- Paper or paint
- Cardboard Box Printed Pattern
Procedure:
The first thing you’ll need to figure out is what size box you’ll need. Measure the items you’ll be putting in it and always add one centimeter to allow for margin.
- On the cardboard, draw the pattern. To define the base, draw a square or rectangle. The other four squares that will form the walls will be divided from that figure. The lines where the pieces meet will be used to fold the cardboard. You’ll have to cut the rest.
- Cut the item out. Keep the five parts together and be very careful. Don’t make too many cuts.
- The joints between the base and the walls should be folded. You’ll see as the box starts to take shape. Fold all of the pieces with care.
- Assemble the lid. The lid can be made in the same manner as the body. On each wall, leave a small amount of excess cardboard and fold it inward.
- To fit the tucked lip in, make the base of the lid slightly larger than necessary.
- Fold the joints and use silicone to bind them together.
- Make the box seem nice. After you’ve finished the box, you can show off your ingenuity. You can paint it or use colored paper, ribbons, or silicone rubber figures to embellish it.

- Adhere the tabs you made to the card stock with glue.
- With the die cutter, cut out a semicircle at the bottom of the tab that seals our box.
- With the scissors, smooth the box’s bottom edges or corners.
- Cut rectangles of decorated paper to the size of the box’s outside walls, according to your preferences.
- Stick the papers to the box with double-sided tape.
- Use double-sided tape to adhere the ornamental fabric tape, then glue the fabric tape on top. Any extra edges should be trimmed away.
