Happy Monday everyone and welcome back to #MakeitMonday. In this episode, episode 6, I am making a super cute yankee candle holder in the form of a carton style box made from a piece of 7 1/2″ x 7 1/2″ DSP.
I have used the Petal Promonade DSP as it is such a gorgeous paper with lots of beautiful printed images in the pack. I stamped the sentiment Thank you for caring from the label me pretty stamp set.
Isn’t this just a beautiful elegant DSP?
Instructions:
- Start with a piece of paper measuring 7 ½“ x 7 ½ “ (Metric 19cm x 19cm)
- Score at 1 ¾”, 3 ½”, 5 ¼” and 7” (Metric = 4 ½ cm, 9cm, 13 ½ cm, 18cm)
- Turn and score at 1 ¾” and 6 ½” (Metric 4 ½ cm and16 ½ cm)
- Burnish the four first score lines, turn over and burnish the score line closest to the edge over the opposite way because that is the top of the box
- Cut out the longest skinny rectangle completely then cut up the remaining score lines x3
- Fold over and stick the top part over, reinforce score lines if required.
- Run adhesive down the smallest side tab (same section than you cut rectangle from).
- Fold and adhere the bottom of the box.
- Insert Yankee or other candle and push top together like a milk carton.
- Punch a hole and feed through a piece of ribbon or use a clip to secure.
