Father’s Day Gift Box

June 13, 2012 by Holly Gagnon 29 Comments

Give Dad a rustic Gift Box this Father’s Day to fill up with his favorite treats.    I personaly have no idea what I’m going to put inside this box for my husband,  I just know I started with a piece of camouflage 12 x 12 paper and ended up making this.

 

Rustic Father's Day Box  made with Cricut Old West

I  adding masculine things found in my craft stash on to the box like burlap, hemp cord, brads and wooden buttons. I adhered some torn, distressed paper to corners of the box and cut some font from the Old West cartridge at 1.5 inches.

These One Sheet Cookie boxes are really easy to make, you can find my tutorial on how to make them  HERE.

 

Father's Day Box  made with Cricut

What’s funny about this box is it doesn’t even really reflect my husband’s personality… he’s not a rugged, Outdoorsman, sports fanatic or military man.

He’s Canadian, likes hockey, chocolate and ketchup potato chips.   Well, I did add a few wooden Maple Leaf buttons to the box so at least his Canadian heritage is covered.  Oh well, it’s the though that counts, right?

    What a fabulous box! I love the burlap that you’ve added to it. And what a thoughtful touch to add the maple leaves for your husband. Even if he’s not the outdoorsy kind, I’m sure he’ll be delighted with this box.

    Thanks so much for playing along with us at My Craft Spot!

    This is great Holly!! I think it is funny that you created a project that would TOTALLY fit my husband…yet I made mine something that doesn’t really fit his personality…though he did like it and especially the candy….funny how things work out! Will be checking your tutorial seeing how it would be right up his alley!!

    Hugs,
    Michelle
