Tall Ribbon Tied Gift Box

Hi everyone, today’s project is this Tall Ribbon Tied Gift Box.

I ended up using these to hold some tall heavy candles. With the reinforced base and lid, these are perfect for heavier items.

To make these you will need…

2 pieces of 8.1/4 x 8.1/4 card.

First pull your card slightly away from the side of your board and score along the 8.1/4 side at 4″ the push the card back in and score again at 7.7/8.

2 pieces of 8 x 8 card for your lid and base.

Score both pieces at 1″, 2″, 6″ & 7″ on both sides. You will need to hole punch one of these pieces, I used my favourite Xcut Screw Punch

4 pieces of 3.5/8 x 5.7/8 patterned paper to decorate the box. My papers were purchased from The Works UK. I’ve found similar papers here.

4 pieces of 27″ length ribbon. My ribbon was from The Range UK.

Matching card and paper to make a matching tag.

Check out my full tutorial below to see how I put them all together.

This is a pretty simple looking box but by adding the ribbon the way I have I think it transforms it.

Hope you enjoy making today’s project.
