Looking for a last minute gift? Looking for a way to wrap your gift of homemade baked goods, so that the outside of the box is as irresistible as what’s inside? Look no further.
Grab your scrapbooking paper, decorative punch, double-sided tape, paper cutter or scissors, and embellishments, and your box, and let’s get started.
Cut a strip of paper almost as wide as your box (or smaller, if you want the box to show in the margin). Next, cut a coordinating strip of paper about three-quarters the width of the first strip.
Use the decorative punch to punch one side of the smaller paper strip.
Wrap the bottom paper around the box, making sure it is centered, creasing the corners. Secure with double-sided tape. I like to slip the paper band off and make sure the tape is pressed down securely and the edges are creased.
Repeat with the second strip, aligning the non-punched edge with the edge of the bottom paper.
Add an embellishment to the top of your box. Three-dimensional scrapbooking stickers are perfect. I also used gift tag stickers, with the recipient’s name written with a ball-point glue pen, from Martha Stewart Crafts, then topped with super fine glitter (also from Martha).
For an alternate layout, punch both sides of you top strip and center it over the bottom strip. There are so many ways you can make this project reflect your own unique style.
You can fill your boxes with anything from soap to fudge and everything in between.
And, if you see this post after the holidays have passed, just remember that you can use this technique to decorate boxes for any occasion.

Between me and my husband we’ve owned a lot of MP3 players over the years than I will count, as well as Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the previous couple of years I’ve settled right down to one line of players. Why? as a result of i was happy to find how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
