Lately I have been throwing around the idea of making diaper cakes and onsie cupcakes. I noticed that a lot of the people making the onsie cupcakes are actual using baking cups and cupcake boxes for their packaging. Super cute! I started looking around and found the ones I wanted from Wilton. Of course they were almost $5 for 2 or 3 of them. Being the frugal crafter that I am, I searched for an inexpensive alternative. I came across an awesome little link from Etsy! Make your own boxes out of scrap paper...What?! That sounded too good to be true but within 8 minutes of watching the video I had already made my own box!
These boxes could be used for anything...gifts, treats or display packaging. Super cute, easy and inexpensive!!! What could be better? The video uses an 8x8 square piece of paper I believe but I used a 12x12 and it worked just as well! I personally used a tad bit of adhesive on the last flaps for added durability. I have included the link so you can make your own boxes! Have fun!
