Hi everyone! I'm always on the hunt for ideas for party favors for school and our church women's events. Today I'm going to share one that I found that is super easy to make and lots of fun and can be used for many different occassions!
I found a template online for a tag box and then had my husband convert it into an svg file for me to cut on my cricut. This saved me so much time! If you would like the template that you can cut by hand, you can find it here. If you would like the .svg file for this template to cut on your electronic machine, you can download it here.
Let's start with Christmas...
This tag box could be decorated so many ways! I kept this one fairly simple. Don't you just love the twine from The Twinery through the buttons? The colors together are perfect for a traditional Christmas color scheme! I used Maraschino & Peapod colors of twine. How about a closer look?
I wanted to make this box in a couple of other holiday themes, so next on my list was one for a birthday.
Aren't those colors so much fun? And the twine matches perfectly! I used the Lemondrop & Pink Sorbet twine.
I used copics to color the cupcake and then used a blender pen to make the cupcake polka dotted. Who can resist a polka dotted cupcake? So cute! Inside the bag I placed a bunch of candy, great for a birthday party!
And last, but not least, I made another tag box with a Valentine's Day theme.
For this one, I made an accordion flower for the center of the box with a decorated middle. I sewed the twine through the white circle piece using a very sharp needle with a large head and then through the button holes and tied the twine to make a bow. I also wrapped the twine around the box a couple of times.
This twine is the Maraschino twine and it is a perfect red! I found a bag of old fashioned mints that were already wrapped and waiting for a home. They slipped inside this box perfectly!
I hope you enjoyed these boxes! They are a lot of fun to make! Thank you for stopping by!

Oh my stars girl! These are awesome! The color scheme on the second one is super fun and the twine is the perfect touch on all of them! Great work Jen!
Aww... you always have the cutest button embellishments! I love the little boxes!
Jen! Long time, no talk!!! These little boxes are just FABULOUS!!! I sort of wish I had a cricut now!! LOL Anyway, I was just looking at my old Sizzix dies and I have a tag that really resembles this....maybe I can make my own box and make some of these! They really are so very creative! I think my favorite is the Valentines with that accordian flower! (on my list of things to try!)
So so cute! I love them all!

They are all lovely, Jen. Thank you (and your DH) for sharing the cut file with us. I've saved it for a future project.
Adorable tag boxes, Jen! Love how you have used two colors of baker's twine on two buttons. Love all the three of them but my fav is the red one. Great work
I love the way you use 2 buttons and the twine along with it. Your accordion card is adorable.

Love your little boxes. I tried to download the SVG file but it doesn't seem to work. Have you removed the download? I'd love to get it if you are still offering it to your blog readers. My email address is Tina.Lisenby@aecom.com Thanks!
