Pillow Boxes - Easy and Fun!!

Hello my crafty friends! This is Kimberly from My Craft Spot and I  have something fun, but super simple for you today!  

I love the wrap it up cartridge and tried a pillow box for the first time.  I was surprised at how fast it went together.  This would be perfect if you had to make a lot of little bundles of goodness to give away quickly!

Scroll down to the bottom for a video showing how I made these!


I cut the red pillow box at 9 inches.


I used Black Diamond Crinkle Ribbon and tied a double bow (see video).

  
These would be so great for teacher gifts, Halloween, special treats for friends, Christmas  . . .

The blue box was cut at 8 inches and tied with Snow White Crinkle Ribbon.  I tied the tag on with Baby Blue Bakers Twine.


I think I am going to cut a bunch of these from patterned cardstock just to have ready to go when I need a quick treat box to give to someone!  They store flat!


The stamped sentiment is from my Inside & Out stamp set #2.


Here is a video showing how I made these fun boxes!:



Hop on over to My Craft Spot for more videos, projects and weekly challenges with fun prizes!

Have a wonderful day!
