Happy Christmas! I'm a tiny bit late with this one. I haven't even got my 1:1 decorations out of the attic yet, but the miniature ones appear to have been brought down. Priorities! :D
Quite a few of the images used for this printable are from Joannes flickr site Take a break. Joanne very kindly uploads a lot of ephemera for other crafters to use free of charge. She used to make dollshouses too! Small world eh? Other images were very poor quality sourced from eBay and fixed up for printing, which I'll probably explain more about in the future, for example the doubl-glo box was very low resolution, and both tinsel boxes are made from copying and pasting bits and pieces together ala Dr Frankenstein :D
For the printable, I recommend using a sharp craft knife for cutting out the boxes! I used one of those Swan Morton ones.
For best results print at Fine quality, on to 220GSM card.
Link for PDF below.
After printing lightly spray with fixative (or hairspray) to seal the ink.
If you need any tips on cutting out the boxes, etc, for a neat fit, the start of this post has a few. I find tabs annoying to cut out and unpredictable at this size (making the box lid too tight for the base etc.), so I make tabs later on, using paper. See the bottom half of this post for a picture explanation, under the title Shoeboxes and boxes.
I recently bought a bone creaser/folder, highly recommended if you do a lot of this sort of thing! It has saved my nails, which were actually wearing away from all of the creasing....
Cut out all of the windows before cutting out the individual boxes. For the fiddly windows,ie, curvy, spiky areas, use short cuts to help preserve the details, rather than trying to follow the line in one go.
Unlike the other boxes, DO NOT cut out the window on the two tinsel boxes, until the sides have been creased. The tinsel is a fly tying material called Chenille Sparkle, which I bought from Troutcatchers. If your husband/son etc, fishes, I wholly support you nicking from his stash of fly tying equipment :D There are some card pieces in the printable that you can use to wrap the tinsel around. |
And I think that's it! They would make nice little Christmas ornaments too, with a bit of thread on them and everything glued into place. I would love to see them in a Christmas setting, stall or attic, anything really, so if you make them up, leave a link below :)
Also, I recently received a package of exquisite miniatures from Pepper, which I can't wait to post about, then that'll be me for this year! :D But even though it's a bit early, I think it is anyway, I wish you all a Happy Christmas, in case I miss you next time due to it being that time of the year ie. Hectic! :D
Just wow! These boxes and printies are fantastic. Thank you for taking the time to gather all the information and collating it onto a PDF for us. You're a star. As for icicles, I'm thinking dipping thread into clear nail varnish but that is just an idea and not a bona-fide-tried-and-tested method =0/
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and yours. Wishing you a fabulous 2015 =0D

Fantastic boxes! Thanks so much! Just what I needed to bring on the miniature christmas spirit. I was too impatient to wait till I could get 220gsm card so went with the 180gsm matt photo paper that I had and it worked great. Back to the cutting mat to cut out the last two.....

Thank you for the printie! Your decoration scene here looks so beautiful and gives me lots of great Christmas spirit =)
ReplyDeleteicicle ornaments, (I had to google it to see what it was, I have no icicle ornament at my house, have never seen them in real life, but they do look beautiful) =) would it be possible to make some from hot glue? (don't have that myself, so I can't try..) It was just a quick thought =) Or maybe from some liquid fimo/sculpey?! Hope you manage to make some, somehow =)

ReplyDeleteWhen you need fast food packaging, cans of electrical appliances, car accessories, motorcycles, cans for accessories, etc. You need to support the details of the structure, specifications and materials. box, carton to suit the item you intend to achieve and high aesthetics. The necessary information is printed on top of the package, the shell of the item with probability and color must be reasonable so that the message is not lacking and achieve the highest aesthetic and beauty.
