    I think it is a wonderful idea. might I suggest that you get all the 'prizes' you want in your boxes and have a friend fill them for you so you still get a 'surprise' when you open them

    I guess I’m going to be making lots of boxes for a crafting Advent Calendar for my Mum.../sigh. Wish I could just skip to decorating one 😁 Thank you so much for being so precise with all the measurements to make sure things fold ok & have enough room to open. Now I just have to try to make them work with A4 & A3 cardstock & metric measurements 🤔 I suspect that will make it more than one day’s make & a big headache for me. Oh well. Will be worth it!

    I'm so glad you figured it out, I been wanting to make one but didn't see any I liked and some were expensive dies and I still couldn't commit. I think I like this one and its more of what I had in my head but polished. I don't think I will make it this year cause I'm trying to get things in the mail and not pull 19 and nothing got finished or mailed, just Xmas cards. I think I will have to make several next year i want to get them done early so i can make everyone one. This makes me happy and i hope i can pull them off for next year. thanks.

    My 49 and Market black cardstock arrived (thank you) so I got started making the boxes. I know you said we don't really need the thumb cut out but I thought of a reason for it. Before I trimmed and folded the boxes, I took that scant half circle out of one end. That way I alwsys knew which was the top for when I trimmed. Big help for me so thought I'd pass that on.
