I love your videos how you explain very very very Well thank you
So cute ❤❤❤❤
You can eliminate some of the bulk in the corners if you slit the paper about an inch where the unfolded paper shows the diamond shape on each of the 4 sides
i wish someone would make a box for those of us who dont have all the equipment.
I love this❤
not happy how my box came out, dont know where i went wrong but not good
I’m sorry! Talk to me! Tell me what happened! I always recommend starting with copy paper and not good paper. There’s always a learning curve
11:12a.m. thanks for the lesson 🎉🎉
Exactly what I was looking for thanks
You are the BEST. Thank you
Haven't got past the first explanation. You've said that a 6x6 box with 1 inch sides will be 8 inches x 2. Then a 5x5 inch with 2 inch sides will be 7 inches x 2. Why isn't this 9 inches x 2? You doubled up the 1 inch sides of the 6 x6 box so why didn't you double up on the 2 inches sides of the 5 x 5 box ie 4 inches?
The measurements are correct for a 5"x5" box with a 1" side the calculation is 1"+ 5"+ 1" = 7" which equates to a piece of paper measuring 7" x 7". Of course with a 2" side it would be a 9" ×9" piece of paper
You are right. In the video hight 2 inches was said and calculated only for 1 inch.
What type of brand of tape do you use? Thank you
This was just a generic double sided tape off Amazon. I’m picky about glue, but not so much about tape :)
You Rock! I’ve been searching for this VIDEO!!! Thanks 😊 I’m definitely trying this very soon!!
Thanks for this video! I needed instructions for this fold and yours were so easy to follow. Your cards are beautiful! You have a great eye for picking patterns that work together. Really nice. Thanks for sharing!
Do you know how to make that box but opens on top?
I have several box videos that open on top!
Do they need to be quite thick paper?
If you want it to support an item of any weight, heavier paper helps with that. But if it’s going to hold light items and be more for display, light weight paper is fine. Plus light weight paper can be easier to fold and secure
You are totally marvelous! I’m making boxes for residents of a retirement home to use for their holiday giving and have been scouring UA-cam on how to adjust measurements. Your video totally solved it for me, thank you so MUCH!!!
This makes my whole day ❤️💜❤️
Using this to give some friends macaroons. Nothing like saying: "I made it myself".
Exactly!! The box, the card, the envelope, the embellishments become part of the gift itself!
Made this tonight with your instructions... super easy, even for a novice like me... thank you so much ❤️😁
That makes my day!
@@sugarmelts ... love it, might make a few more 😆
Forgot to say thanks for the soap idea, I make cold process soap too. 😘
I love making soap! I haven’t made any videos yet because of the time pressures with trace and the risk of the lye on my camera!
Thank you 💛
Great video! 😍I also have a channel about crafting and am therefore always looking for new ideas and inspiration.😘☺
Just found your channel! Lovely card!
Those are so pretty!
This is such a fun project!
Very cute thanks for sharing
Your cards designs are absolutely gorgeous! I always get inspired when I watch your videos
Love your ring!❤️
Beautiful card. 👍
That's really beautiful! Thank you for showing us this card.
I was doing the math in my head as I was watching and could not figure where the 8 inch came from, checked under the video and saw the correction! Thank you for the video!
thank you for your tutorial, it was excellent...Your tools etc spell out a number 9840.
Love your cards!! Greetings from "down-under".
Oh my goodness I'm generally up at God forsaken hours and I've caught you up in my feed UA-cam and how wonderful. You may have a new sub soon. I'm going to review more toturials of your. I love the ease of instructional element. Please keep your work going.
Love these cute little gift boxes! Can’t wait to make some for Christmas 🧑🎄
Good day Lizelle from Cape Town, South Africa love these boxes but need smaller, if I want to make a 6 x 6" box could you maybe help me with the measurements of that please.
Yes! I have a 6”x6” box I can show you! I make one in the Envelopes, Boxes and Cards! Oh my! Video on my channel but I’ll post another one this weekend that is just the box! Thanks for reaching out!
This is perfect for those 12x12 papers I don’t know what to do with. Thank you so much for an easy project!!!!
Super cute box Love it TFS!
I love the stand up Thank You card!
These boxes are adorable! Sugar Melts has the best ideas!!!
Hello
Luv this...I have so much paper that I haven't used that I can make these with. Do you think the outside of the "bag" should be coated with modgepodge?
I haven’t tried it with mod podge, but it may work. Just be sure that were the pages come together, that there’s a really tight seal (tear tape right at the edge would be great). Also I recommend doing a dry run with paper that may not be your favorite, that way if it doesn’t work out it won’t be quite as disappointing.
Thank you, I made one and it came out great. Would you do a square box the same way please.
That’s a great idea! Yes, I have the dimensions all worked out and that will be my next video! Thanks for the suggestion!
@@sugarmelts Thank you, I will watch out for the tutorial.
Can’t wait to see all of the video ideas you come up with. You’re a natural at this. I am one of those people who has received several of your unique and beautiful cards, and I have a few that I keep visible to remind me what true friendship looks like. You’re one talented lady!
I absolutely love these flowers! What a fantastic idea. Now I know what to do with all of my pretty paper scraps. Can’t wait to watch more of these videos. They’re the best!
Nice way to use your left over paper scrapes!
Wow love this design thanks for sharing for use going to try this :)
Linda Wilkinson thanks! I saw other templates for 12x12 but most of my paper is 8.5 x 11... glad you like it!
Love it!!!!! Pretty girl.
Steve Farrell thank you! I think you are a little biased ❤️
Great uses of the paper stock that I have built up.
