Time To Make – 20 Minutes
Cor, it was almost 6 years ago that I came up with this unique and unusual design of box, and this is the first time I’ve remade it since then!
I’ve seen lots of miniaturised versions of it, though not with the narrower top as this one has, but having recently received a mini version in a swap a few months ago, it prompted me to bring out my own design again and remake it.
This is such an easy box to make, despite it looking like it will be complicated. Laying on the paper is probably the most complicated part of all!
This time though, I brought in Eden’s Garden to put on the box, and I think it really works well as a Christmas project. Not least because yes, I deliberately chose the Word Wishes to get my words on there!
Of course, you could make it with any other wordy combination, but for me, I wanted a slim Christmas box, and that’s what I made!
Eden’s Garden – also useful at Christmas….!
Do you like my project? Did you make it way back in 2016 when I first designed it?
Have a fabulous day!

Just Love that box that paper is gorgeous must have some when can I order a SequoiaTranslator
Cute box Sam, you could get lots of small ‘lovlies’ in there – lippy, nail varnish, a few expensive chocs. I bought some of this , it is so beautiful but i’m having trouble cutting into it., i could probably paper a room with the dsp paper i have but cannot bear to cut up!
