DIY Small Pillow Gift Box


These little boxes are great for stuffing with candies, goodies or little gifts, and they are so easy and fun to make! Your giftee will never guess they are made from recycled paper towel roll tubes! You can scale these up to make longer boxes with wrapping paper tubes (perfect for gifting posters!).

Difficulty level: Easy
Time required: 20 minutes

Things you’ll need:
Paper towel roll tubes
Scrapbook paper
Bone folder
Scissors
Glue stick
Tin can

Things to do:
1. Flatten out your tube.

2. Using your can, line it up on the edge of the flattened tube and use the edge of the can and your bone folder to score an arc along the end of the tube.


3. Cut a piece of decorative paper the width of your tube and a little longer than the tube is around. Using your glue stick, glue the paper onto the tube, overlapping the end and being sure to glue down all the edges.


4. Rescore the arc on your tube and then gently crease to fold the ends in to close.
