The complete custom gift box tutorial: simple and reinforced lidded boxes
Making boxes is one of my favorite things and I know that the beginning brings up a lot of questions, so in today’s video, you will learn how to create a lidded box in two ways: simple and reinforced. I will teach you how to calculate a custom-sized box so that you can fit any gift.
I know we forget a few details with time, so I prepared this FREE TEMPLATE to remind you! Enjoy: bit.ly/3osKwH1

Excellent video. You did a great job explaining how to get your measurements for the boxes. Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Wow, this is life changing info. I didn't think that the calculations would be so easy. Thank you so much for this invaluable video.
You’re welcome, Sarina!
This method is genius! I needed a specific size box for a project and remembered you had a tutorial. This helped me so much! Thank you, Paula :)
You’re welcome!
Only just found your channel and so glad i did. Clearly explained and so helpful. Now i can make my own boxes. Thank you 😊
I’m glad you liked it. Took me years to master box making because I could never find a tutorial that explained how to customize it. That’s why I created this one. I love making my own boxes and I hope you make yours from now on. It’s a gift in itself.🎄🌲
Thank You Paula for an excellent & easy to understand video on how to work out the measurements to make custom sized boxes. I also love the tips and how to reinforce them. Greatly appreciated for all the time & cardstock I will save now 😊❤
Cool, it’s not complicated, you just need to understand it. From now on you will create your own.😉
