How to make a One Sheet Gift Box

November 4, 2011 by Holly Gagnon 44 Comments


 When the Holiday’s come around, many of us like to give little gifts or baked goods to the people we love.  This One Sheet Gift Box is perfect for those special occasions, can be made in a flash and uses only a sheet of 12 x 12 scrapbooking paper! That’s it.   How cool is that?  Most of us have plenty of scrapbooking paper laying around.  

Follow this tutorial on how to make a One Sheet Gift Box out of one sheet of 12 x 12 Scrapbook Paper! The perfect size to hold all sorts of treats!

{this post contains affliate links referencing products used} 

How to make a One Sheet Gift Box

I kept the box simple since the paper is so pretty and added a few flower rosettes cut from Cricut Flower Shoppe cartridge, wrapped the box with a raffia bow and stamped a Thankful sentiment.

    Hi Holly, great project, you’re right about that paper not needing much so your rosettes and raffia were just the right touch.

    Thanks so much for sharing this with us.

    Love the cookie box. Very cute and easy to make. Assuming bought cookies, since the box is deep, just wondered if you had a choice of cookies that fit. Now to think of what cookies would be best. Looks like it could hold a good amount. Just curious. If anyone can email me what you used, hugs in advance. jlowder1@bellsouth.net

    I love this box, so I thought why not try to make a smaller one. So I used a 6×6 paper and divided the score lines by half. Worked great! They can hold four little tea lights inside, and with a few simple decorations with a tea light holder included you have a nice little gift for not a lot of money! Oh and small slices of fudge work inside as well!

    My kids and I make cookies for their teachers every year for Christmas and we just made one of these to put them in! It turned out awesome…so simple, affordable and soooooo cute. I don’t have the scoring tools but improvised and it came out great! Thanks for posting…I’m sure I will be using these for many years to come ?

    Such a great way to make a unique box for someone special. It’s often the little things people appreciate the most. Muslin or Burlap gift bags are also a great back up for gift giving. You can make them unique with stamps, ribbons or tags.
