Give with the eye! You’ve probably already experienced it yourself: the joy of gift-giving increases on both sides when the gift is beautifully, individually or with recognizable attention to detail wrapped. Our DIY gift box hack shows how to turn an ordinary cardboard box with a lid into a luxurious-looking gift box using three different d-c-fix® Metallic Glitter adhesive foils. This not only looks great under the Christmas tree, but also makes a real impression when it’s presented! Plus: Designing your own gift boxes is sustainable, fun to make and easy on the wallet. Ready for your gift boxes with glittering wow?

Preparation

You have everything you need? Then get started!

Step 1

Cover the entire shoe box – including the base – with the “Glitter anthracite” foil and smooth the foil using a squeegee.

Step 2

Now measure the width of the shoe box lid.

Step 3

Then transfer the dimensions plus 5 cm to the right, 5 cm to the left and with a height of 5 cm onto the rear side of the “Glitter silver” foil.

Step 4

Use a cutter to cut the “Glitter silver” foil along the ruler.

Step 5

Now remove the backing paper 5 cm to the right and 5 cm to the left of the “Glitter silver” foil. Then cut off the detached backing paper using scissors.
