The other day while searching for some tins I ordered many years ago for candy, I found these Stampin’ Up! White Gift Boxes (142000) in my retired stash. I had to change my design idea from candy in a tin to candy in a box for a few gifts. Whether or not you have these official White Gift Boxes in your stash, you can use this idea of any plain box. It would even cover up company printing on the box and the size of the box doesn’t matter. You can use this same principle.

Each side of this box is 3″ x 3″. I cut out five pieces of cardstock at 2 3/4″ x 2 3/4″, then five pieces of designer series paper at 2 5/8″ x 2 5/8″ (or you could do 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″). Just adhere the designer paper to the cardstock and then on to the box. I like to use Multipurpose Liquid Glue because it gives you “wiggle room” to get the paper on straight on the box. On this box, I used the A Little Bit Festive Specialty Designer Series Paper and Misty Moonlight Cardstock.

The snowman on the top of the box is punched out of the Snowy Scenes Designer Series Paper with a Circle Punch and then layered on a punched circle of Daffodil Delight to match his scarf. You could use whatever you like.

For a final touch (before adding candy inside!), I wrapped around some ribbon that I had handy, which happened to be some retired Pretty Peacock ribbon, but I thought it matched okay. Use Mini Glue Dots to hold the ribbon in place at least in the back and maybe the sides, then tie a bow on the front.

Even if you had a small Amazon or other shipping box, you could use this same idea to cut out pieces of cardstock and/or designer paper to cover the sides of the box and personalize it! Just have fun with it! Time to wrap those gifts!!
