Printable St. Patrick’s Day Gift Box and Gift Tag
While walking through the grocery store the other day I realized that St. Patrick’s Day is a wee-bit overlooked. Yep! There was no aisle full of green candy, fun green themed toys or cookie decorations. I wonder why… maybe I should’ve checked the beer aisle (wink-wink).
Oh well. For today’s project, I was on the hunt for jelly beans — and they’re a dime a dozen. However, I did pick mine up in the Easter aisle. Ha ha ha. I’m genuinely cracking myself up over here (insert face palm).
While I don’t always go big or go home for holidays, I do enjoy having options for small, thoughtful gifts. Add a little candy to the mix and who can resist? Like these Green Party Favors.
Super cute, right? Well, what I love about today’s project is that all you have to really “buy” is the candy. Boom!
I adore the simplicity of gingham and the reference “Rainbow Seeds” makes me smile. It’s such a happy thought, growing rainbows. Don’t you think?
Supplies:
White Cardstock
Printer
Scissors
Bone Folder, optional
Glue Stick or Double Sided Tape
Ribbon, optional
Colorful Jelly Beans (or candy of choice)
Instructions for Assembling Pillow Boxes:
- Print your green gingham pillow box on white cardstock (or take the printable to your local office store for printing).
- Using scissors, cut out the template along the outline of the box. Try to leave very little to no white border.
- Score along the curved lines at the top and bottom, and fold the two long edges. You can use a folding bone or scissors to lightly score. Please Note: If you use something with a sharper edge, be sure you don’t cut through the paper.
- Glue or tape the tab to the opposite side of the box. I prefer to use the double sided tape, less messy.
- Fold down the flaps to make your box a pillow.
- Cut out rainbow printable and attach with double sided tape.
- Add rainbow seeds and gift!
You could avoid the gingham boxes and use kraft pillow boxes too! Kraft color packaging is a favorite of mine, so I always have pillow boxes on hand.
I think they’re darling either way? What do you think? Grab your printables below and have fun creating.

Hi! Am LOVING these ‘stinkin’ cute boxes.. Great backgrounds and a perfect size!
Am making this green one up for my friends 90th bdy. She’s always said that she has a white walled house because her friends are so colorful!! Also she is a master gardener and I bet she doesn’t have rainbow seeds…!
Thank you for your cuteness!!
