Oven Cookie Box Assembly

Hi everyone!  Corri here today with a quick assembly tutorial for Lori’s adorable oven cookie box.   This cute box can hold a stack of cookies plus something else in the drawer.  So fun!

Let’s get started.

The pieces in the file are sorted by color.  These are the light pink pieces which form the base of the oven box.

Fold along all the score lines, apply glue to the  tabs to make the individual boxes that form the oven.

You will end up with the lid, the oven, the two pieces that make up drawer and the little part where the oven dials go.   You can add some brads or enamel dots where the little holes are before closing up the tabs.

Glue the oven portion on top of the drawer part.  You will use cover panels to hide the seams in the next step.

Next you can cut the cover pieces (they are dark pink in the file). These can be from patterned paper.  You can cut them all on one 12 x 12 sheet.    I used this cute polka dot print from the Echo Park’s Happy Summer Collection.

Match the cover pieces up to the base layer and glue in place.

These extra panels give the box a nice finished look.

There you have it!  I hope you’ll give this fun box a try.  Be sure to stop by Lori’s SVG Shop to check out all the newly added files.

 

Lovebug Box with Corri

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing my take on Lori’s ladybug slip lid box.

To turn my ladybug into a “love”bug,  I  used the “release compound path” feature to remove the polka dots and replace them with hearts.

This little box would be great for classroom Valentine’s Day treats.  It’s  adorable on it’s own so I added just a couple of embellishments.  I cut a pieces of glitter cardstock to fit behind my hearts for a little sparkle and added a sticker from the Doodlebug – Sweet Things Collection and a twine bow.

Head over to the Lori’s SVG Shop to find more adorable treat bags and cards for Valentine’s Day.

Father’s Day Gift Idea

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing my take on Lori’s Tall Triangle Sides Box.

I love the look of this fun box!  It’s very easy to put together but has such a unique shape.

I used paper from the Echo Park -Jack and Jill Collection (Jack) and embellished with some stickers from the collection and a piece from the ephemera pack.

This would be a great way to give Dad a gift card or other small gift.

Octagon Teapot Tutorial by Corri

Hi everyone!  Corri here today sharing this beautiful new 3D Teapot 2 SVG (Silhouette file HERE) that Lori added this week.  This would make a great gift for Mother’s Day!  You could fill it with your Mom’s favorite tea bags or with a small gift and a gift card.

I used paper from the Lori’s Jack & Jill Collection for Echo Park Paper.  This large floral print is perfect for the teapot.

To assemble the teapot, first cut everything out from the papers of your choice.

If you choose a detailed pattern paper like this for your project, I suggest leaving all the pieces on your mat.  That way the pattern will match up easily as you glue the panels in place.

Next,  apply glue to the glue tabs of the two teapot pieces (white), glue them together and the glue the end tabs together to form a circle.

Now you are ready to start forming the octagon shape.

 

Apply glue to the glue tabs as show and line them up with the adjacent panel.  It helps to fold the panel with the glue tab out, apply the glue and then line up the panel as closely as possible to the score line.  Be patient on this portion of the assembly.  Wait a few seconds to allow the glue to dry slightly before moving on to the next tab to prevent shifting.

Continue all the way around glueing the tabs in place.  Follow the same steps with the base and lid.

Glue the base in place. Glue the two pieces of the handle together folding taps out and then glue in place.  Fold the spout in half, fold tabs out and glue in place.

Finally, glue the decorative panels in place. So cute!!
