Holiday gift boxes

Photo Details

Poster: reccabecca

These were SO much fun to make! The bows were from the tutorial on this site and the boxes are just origami boxes using 2 sheets of CS, one 12x12 and the other 1/2 inch smaller. I used just one brad for the bow and poked a hole in the top of the box lid, pushed the brad through, and that secured it without glue.

I ended up making 22 boxes - one for both child's teachers, my 4 sisters, mom, SIL, and BIL. Then I filled them with cookies (for the teachers), hand-knitted scarves and decorated ornaments (for my sisters and mom) and gift cards (SIL and BIL).

These are gorgeous! Where did you get the pattern for the origami boxes? I'm thinking I could do these for Valentine's day!

I'd love to be adopted into your family or circle of friends! The boxes are so very cute and the gifts inside sound yummy and wonderful!

Your holiday gift boxes look great! I would like to know how you make the boxes.
You obviously get a lot of requests for this!

Thanks,
Noni
