The Indispensable Cube Box
 
This fabulous box can really be used for just about anything!

Below we have the same box being used for 2 different craft projects.

We hope these will inspire you to try something different for that special Dad or Teacher this year!

Teacher Craft Project

Supplies
  • 4" x 4" x 4" cube gift box (we used red but other colours can be used)
  • coloured 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock (orange, blue and white)
  • Glue runner / photo tabs
  • ruler print ribbon (about 10" or as desired)

Instructions
  • download and print the box message templates (including the gift card pocket) onto white cardstock
  • cut out the box message templates and mat onto orange and blue cardstock, leaving about a 1/4" wide mat around each template
  • leave the top of the gift pocket open (do not flue shut) as you need to insert your gift card into the pocket
  • attach (using glue runner or photo tabs) on 3 sides of the box and the lid, leaving the front side blank; attach the pocket to the front side of the box
  • tie ribbon to the box lid (as per photo)
  • use the box for a gift card or for a gift inside the box (like a mug or a plant)
