How to Make a Gift Box for Your Soap Orders!

I am so happy with how these custom made gift boxes turned out! I am also glad I figured out a way to keep close to my desired size and still get 4 tops out of a 12x12 cardstock sheet!
I hope you had fun watching this "pack with me" type video!

[@terriea.bennett5616]

Those boxes are adorable!

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Thank you so much!! 🤗

[@bitofalather]

I just love your videos. You are so cheerful and laugh at your mistakes. It makes me realise that I don't need to be perfect either. Absolutely love the little boxes I have card stock from cardmaking so I'm going to try making them too. Great video. Thank you ❤️

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

You are so welcome! Thank you so much for your sweet comment!! 💕

[@melissapeterson4202]

Tammy, you're so creative! Love the boxes, and if it's something you enjoy then it's not really work! A win win for you and your customers 😊 thanks for all the tips! If I want to make them I'll know how. Have a great week!

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

thanks Melissa! You have a great week as well! 😍

[@BubblesByHeather]

What a great idea! Thanks for sharing ❤

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Thanks for watching Heather!💕

The boxes are cute. I know a gal in the UK, who started making boxes for sale and quickly became overwelmed with the work. I hope it doesn't go that way with you. I thought of making boxes, about 4 years ago, after watching a box making video, but after making a few brought my prices up just a bit to cover everything. Those increases reduced my sales. I don't have a hugh margin as it is. So I gave up and had to write off my purchases. Gave mine away, also. I do hope it works out well for you. As always, love watching. Love how you make me chuckle! Cheers 👍🤗💕

[@cheryl739]

Maybe it would help if you write a packing list and tape it in view. Like: Product Sample Gift ? Packing invoice Etc. Until you get used to it. 😉

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

hey Cheryl - thanks for the warning! I def need to keep myself in check because I can get carried away at time (I know, this surprises you LOL)💗

[@loricolwell1470]

Happy Saturday Tammy!! Got my box. LOVE IT!!! (I was curious about the sample. Haha. ) 3 for 3 so far. They are so amazing smelling. Apple Cidar has been my favorite so far. Loving the boxes but you do them how you are comfortable doing them. There is no right way. Keep doing you!! 💕

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

Apple Cider is my favorite by far too Lori! I'm glad you are like the boxes, we'll see how long I can manage them LOL I was so mad at myself when I went downstairs and saw all of those dang samples just sitting there 😫 (well I laughed at myself for the most part haha - it was just such a Tammy thing to do) Thanks so much for you sweet support!! 💕

[@loricolwell1470]

@WalnutCreekBathBoutique hey we're all human. Things happen. Don't stress over the sample thing. It's fine. That's not technically part of the box anyway right. It's pretty neat to have but hey don't stress it. Plus side the soap was in the box. 😂😂😂 (ya dont have to get so fancy either lady. We love all things Tammy and all the yummy products. We'll be happy with anything) true Tammy fans are good with anything my friend. 💕

[@cliviascreations]

Happy Saturday my funny friend! I love them but will not do it. Sorry that is a lot of work! The extra padding is good since you said the boxes are not the best quality. That will provide an extra layer of protection. Well done!

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

thanks Clivia! Yeah, I start these things and then peter out because they are so time consuming. That why I add the "disclaimer" haha that this is current plans and the "we'll see" 😆💕

[@mommiecat]

when you use a really thick cardstock and want to score it you can lightly mist with a fine mist sprayer of water. It helps with the score line. And it's called a bone folder. :) Thanks for sharing the idea - I have made tons of boxes in my paper crafting career and hadn't thought of making boxes for my soap business. What size is your shipping box that you are putting these into?

[@WalnutCreekBathBoutique]

oh good tips!! Thanks so much 💖 I am using a 6x6x3 shipping box Bone folder... I will try to remember that 😆

[@mommiecat]

@@WalnutCreekBathBoutique I watched a crafting video once several years ago where one of the big craft personalities at the time kept calling it a boner. Made me giggle every time!
