Hello and thanks for joining me.
I love making milk carton style boxes. They are so easy to make and just as easy to resize if you want to.
I’ve made this size so many times than I could count but I still love to try it out with new colours and papers so here’s my latest version…
I’ve used a Rococo Rose and Sahara Sand design from the Woven Threads designer series paper pack so used card stock in the same colours.
This size is a good fit for a small Yankee candle jar like this one…
If you’d like the dimensions and cutting guide for this box please click here to see another recent example.
I didn’t want to distract too much from the beautiful paper so I kept the decoration on the front of this box really simple. I stamped the Thank You from the Magnolia Blooms stamp set that I used for yesterday’s card in Rococo Rose ink onto Sahara Sand card and cut it with my 2 inch circle punch. I used my Starburst punch on some Rococo Rose card and glued this to the back of the stamped one before adding to the box. I added some self adhesive sequins too.
I’ve used a retired ribbon to close the top of this box but I think it would look great with the Braided Linen Trim instead; unfortunately I don’t have any.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this project. It would make a lovely little thank you gift and I’m sure it would be greatly appreciated by the recipient.
I’ve listed the products used below. You can click on any of the links to visit my friend Valerie’s online Stampin’ Up! store if you’d like to purchase any of them.

I don”t know why you post something like this if you don’t share the instructions on how to make it,
