Are you planning on giving gifts to loved ones & friends any time soon? If you are like me, & love personalizing your gifts & gift wrapping; then this project is for you.
The beauty of these gorgeous little boxes is that they are economical on product using only a sheet of 12x12” patterned paper to make two boxes. They can be made in 15 minutes which is a wonderful time saver!
Join me as I take you through my step-by-step process.

- Fold & adhere the first box flap closed.
