Snowman Gift Box

This gift box was made from a kit from svgcuts called Christmas Open House SVG Kit. Click HERE to check it out at svgcuts.com.

The kit contains svg files of all of the pieces needed to create this box. I used my Cricut Expression with my Sure Cuts A Lot 2 software, but I could have used my Silhouette or any electronic die cutting machine that can cut svg files. I selected all of the paper I wished to use and set up all of the cut files on separate “pages” by grouping images based on the type of paper I wanted the pieces to be. Once all of the pieces were cut out by my electronic die cutting machine, I embossed all of the white panels that were for the snowman’s body with a folder by Darice called Snowflake Swirls. Then I assembled and glued everything together and ended up with this amazing box! SVGCuts has great tutorial videos that go with each of their their projects to help with assembling the pieces. (HERE is the You Tube video link for this project tutorial, or you can watch it on their site as well.)

Thanks for checking out my project!

I’d like to share a storage idea with you!

The product is the Darice 32 Compartment No Spill Organizer Storage Container.

I use them to store my Memento Dew Drop ink pads and my sponge daubers.

What I love about these containers is that these items fit into the compartments perfectly. They stack for easy storage and close to keep the contents secure. I also like that they fit perfectly into my IRIS 6-Drawer Scrapbook Chest.

While not a problem for me based on how I use these boxes, I just want to point out that the compartments are not adjustable, and the box itself is pretty shallow. Thirty of the compartments are 1.5″ x 1.875″ and are about 1″ deep. (The two by the “hook” that closes it are smaller.) I think the box itself is about 1.5″ high.

I purchased my Darice Organizers at Walmart in the craft department with the beads and jewelry-making supplies. You can order them online at amazon.com or walmart.com.
