Assembling the Quietfire Upright Gift Boxes

 


Meet the new Upright Gift Boxes!  These are all Christmas/Winter themed, but I think you'll see this type of box again!
 

They're really very easy to cut and assemble.  You can find them on my Silhouette page - just filter my profile using the word "upright".

Here is how you assemble them.

Cut the file in any colour you wish.  Busy patterned papers might be too busy for this box!

 
Fold along all the long perforated score lines.
 
The sides folds of the box require a little extra love. They form a "pleat".  Use a ball stylus and ruler to help crease those lines, especially the one that is horizontal when the box is upright.  
 


Don't forget the score lines on the tab.  Those will need to bend, too.

 

Add adhesive to the side tab and form the box.


 
Close the bottom of the box.  You may with to add adhesive to this tab, too.
 
 
Pinch the side pleats gently, fold the top over and insert the tab into the slot.
 
 



Add the included bow on the front or make your own ribbon bow. Fill with a gift or some chocolates, or......?

Happy creating, Suzanne

P.S. You can find them on my Silhouette page - just filter my profile using the word "upright".
