Here you will find the printable PDF for the bunny gift box template.
Instructions
Step 1: Print out your bunny gift box template.
Step 2: Cut out the template. If you haven't printed your template onto card stock or colored paper, cut out the template and then trace it onto your paper. Then cut out what you traced.
Step 3: Fold or score along the dotted lines.
Step 4: Apply some glue or double sided tape to the bottom flaps and side flap (see picture for guide).
Step 5: Assemble your box.
Step 6: Put anything you want in your box and then tie it closed with some ribbon.
If you are using the carrot gift tag, cut it out, punch a hole at the top and tie it to your bunny box with a ribbon.
Tips For Success
- Use thicker paper for a more durable box - If using regular printer paper, consider reinforcing the sides with extra layers.
- Let kids get creative! - Print the template onto white paper and let them color, paint, or add stickers before cutting and assembling.
- Score the fold lines - Use a ruler and the back of a butter knife to create clean, crisp folds.
- Double-sided tape works great! - Instead of glue, use tape for a cleaner finish with no drying time.
- Scale the template - Print at different sizes to create a set of mini and large bunny boxes.
Common Mistakes & How To Avoid Them
Using too much glue - A small amount is enough; too much can make the paper soggy.
Color, Paper Ideas, and Variations
- Classic Easter Pastels - Use soft pinks, baby blues, yellows, and mint greens for a sweet and festive spring look.
- Bold & Bright Colors - Try hot pink, orange, or purple for a fun and playful bunny box!
- Themed Bunny Boxes - Use gold or red for Christmas, orange and black for Halloween, or shiny metallic paper for an elegant touch.
- Patterned Paper for Extra Charm - Use floral, polka dot, or gingham prints for a farmhouse or vintage-inspired look.
- Personalized with Names - Add a name tag or write on the bunny's ear for a cute, customized gift box.
FAQ
Yes! However, regular paper may be a bit flimsy.
You can adjust the print settings to scale up the template. Just ensure the proportions remain the same!
