Color a Free Printable St. Patrick's Day Gift Box to share a one-of-a-kind gift!
Do you share small gifts or have a leprechaun stop by your house on St. Patrick's Day? This Free Printable St. Patrick's Day Gift Box is fun to color, easy to assemble, and will have that handmade touch that everyone loves to receive! The box templates have a top and a bottom piece that fit together beautifully to hold smaller items like gift cards, jewelry, treats, and more for teachers, friends, and co-workers!
Cut the box top and bottom pieces out by cutting along the solid guidelines using a paper trimmer or scissors. Be careful to NOT cut through the dashed lines!
Along with the printable, you will also need a variety of crayons, colored pencils or markers. Color both the box top and bottom designs in any bright colors you want. Most importantly, have fun and take some time to relax!
Use a ruler and a scoring tool along all of the dashed guidelines. Scoring the paper before folding will help prevent paper cracks and crooked folds.
Gently fold along the score lines with your hands, then use your fingernail or a credit card to press down firmly on the fold and slide across. Repeat for all of the score lines.
Use some quick-drying adhesive or double-sided tape to assemble the boxes. On the bottom box, place the adhesive on all four tabs, then fold them into the center. Hold the tabs in place until the glue has set.
For the top, add some adhesive to both of the long sides of the box. Fold the edge over along the first score line. Press down well so that the paper sticks together. Next, fold those longer sides up and fold the tabs in. Add some adhesive to one of the shorter sides. Lift it up and press the tabs to stick to the bottom half of the short side. The score line should be just above the tabs. Fold the top half of the side down over top of the tabs and press well. All of this folding and gluing will make the box look clean, as well as making it stronger and keep its shape!
Now the box is ready to be filled with goodies! This is the perfect-sized box for gift cards, jewelry, candy, and any other green-colored surprises you can find. I found a bunch of fun items at the dollar store!!
Once the box is filled, put the lid on top. Make a bunch of these lucky gift boxes for friends, family, teachers, and even your co-workers! There are so many fun GREEN items out there to put in! Have fun and I hope you have a fantastic St. Patrick's Day!!
