Box animals

Would you like to add a personal touch to your gifts and make them unforgettable? In this tutorial, I'll show you how to create beautiful animal gift boxes using simple materials. These handmade boxes are not only a real eye-catcher, but also an expression of your creativity. Let's unleash your crafting skills together!

Step 1: Prepare templates

Start by transferring the templates for the gift boxes onto craft cardboard sheets. Choose colours that you like and that match the animals. Make sure you work precisely so that your gift box looks perfect later on. Then carefully cut out all the parts.

Step 2: Stick on the gift box

The next step is to glue one side of the gift box. Make sure that the perforations remain free as you will be threading the organza ribbon through them. Think about how best to combine the colours and patterns to make the box visually appealing.

Step 3: Design the ladybird wings

You can cut out the dots on the angel wings and stick them on or simply paint them on, depending on your taste and skill. Both options give the box a personal touch and make it something very special.

Step 4: Attach the eyes

Now the eyes are missing. You can easily stick these on. Allow the glued areas to dry thoroughly before continuing with the next step.

Step 5: Folding the box

Once everything has dried well, you can fold the gift box. Do this carefully so as not to cause any creases and to keep the box in a nice shape.

Step 6: Thread the organza ribbon

Finally, thread the organza ribbon through the perforations and close the gift box with a pretty bow on the back. These little details make your gift box look even more elegant and are the crowning glory of your craft work.
