Free Printable Boxes for Christmas Miniatures or Small Presents

These two printable miniature boxes are designed to hold small presents or make a set for an advent calendar. Each box measures roughly 2 x 2 inches by 1 1/2 inches. Two boxes can be printed on a standard sheet of lightweight card or photo paper.

These inexpensive, recyclable packages for miniatures, can also be used to wrap small gifts or used in sets for a special advent calendar. Made of lightweight card or photo paper, they offer protection for items sold at miniature or craft sales, or a way to make a tiny present special. Each box measures about 2 inches by 2 inches by 1 1/2 inches in size.

Packaging small items for Christmas shows can be expensive, especially for people just starting out. Having a few of these boxes on hand may help buyers view your items as making a great gift. Boxes also serve as a place to add a stamped business name or web address.

To use these little boxes for an advent calendar, print out a set for as many days as you wish the calendar to count down, and write or stick a number on each box (near the door or on the roof of the gingerbread house, or in the center of the wreath).
