Gift Box for Foaming Hand Soap

Today I want to share with you a cute packaging idea for gifting Bath & Body Foaming Hand Soap.  This is one of my favorite gifts to receive because a) I love the scents, b) it's practical and useful, and c) it won't take up room in my house because I will use it up and throw it away!  Ha, ha, ha!  I saw the idea and measurements for this box from Jessica Lewis at Scrap Sprinkle Crop.

I showed how to make this project on Facebook Live this week.  You can see the replay on Facebook HERE (no ads), or click on the link below to watch it on YouTube:


In the summer, I made a lemon version to give to my retreat attendees with some lemon scented soap inside.


Now it's the time of year to make Christmas versions!  I used Shaded Spruce and Cherry Cobbler cardstock to match the soap I had on hand (the soap was probably bought last season).  I chose Sentimental Wishes Designer Series Paper to wrap around the box.  The little stars were die-cut with the Merriest Tree Dies out of More Dazzle Specialty Paper which is retired, but they would also look great cut out of Gold Foil paper.


For the Shaded Spruce version above, I used Christmas Labels bundle for the sentiment and label piece.  For the Cherry Cobbler version below, I used Greetings of the Season bundle for the sentiment and tag.


Measurements in inches:
  • Cardstock box (Shaded Spruce or Cherry Cobbler): 7-1/4 x 10; with 10" side at the top, score at 2-5/8, 4-3/4, 7-3/8, and 9-1/2
  • TURN and score at 6"
  • Sentimental Wishes DSP: 3 x 10; score at the same marks shown above
  • Cut as shown in the picture below


I used Shaded Spruce 1/2" Satin & Sheer ribbon for the handles.  I attached them with tear tape.  You can see how I did this and how I assembled the box in the video linked above.

Thank you for stopping by!  I hope you give this a try.  You can find a list of supplies at the end of this post.
