Beautiful Flip Lid Picnic Basket Gift Box

mixedupcraft

Hi everyone, for autumn and Halloween this year I made these lovely Flip Lid Picnic Basket Gift Bags.

These unusual faceted gift boxes are great for many occasions, and I will be revisiting this style and making a different size for Christmas 2022.

The Autumn Harvest one is filled with 16 mini Pumpkins each holding a Lint chocolate.

I think these would make great little apples and make a perfect Teachers gift.

The overall size of this box is 3.1/2 x 8′ x 5ish
