Gift Box Patterns

A few weeks ago I shared some ideas for turning envelopes into gift bags.

Now I have some ideas for making gift boxes with greeting or note cards, so if you have greeting card sets you can use everything.

A triangle gift box requires only a few scores and folds to complete it. It is held together by ribbon or twine tied through holes punched in the top.

If your business card doesn't fit on the front of the triangle box, you can punch a hole in one corner and tie it to the ribbon or twine holding the box shut.

Because you don't tape or glue them, you can score a bunch of cards ahead of time and store them flat until you need one.

You can also precut your ribbon, twine or yarn, and stiffen one end with glue for ease in threading it through the holes.

See the full Gift Box Patterns tutorial to make the nifty triangular boxes shown here.

Even though you use regular gift packaging during the year, it's nice to be able to offer your customers special gift wrapping at the holiday season.

So be sure to check just before or after the holiday season for big discounts on holiday cards.
