This cute cottage coloring gift box is very easy to make. This craft comes complete with a free coloring page and simple instructions to make a sweet little box, suitable for those little gifts for Mother’s Day, housewarming, or birthday.

My daughter will be getting married in just over a week, and she will be moving into a little cottage with her new husband. So I decided to create a special little gift box for you to color which could contain a little house warming gift. The gift box measures about 3″ x 4.5″ (8 x 11 cm).
The back of this little coloring gift box has a Bible verse from Proverbs 24:3 on it:
Through wisdom a house is built; by understanding it is established.

I have included 4 different tags on the printable page:
- Happy Birthday
- Happy Mother’s Day
- Home Sweet Home
- To: … From: …
Materials for the Cute Cottage Coloring Gift Box:
- Cute Cottage Coloring Gift Box printable coloring page
- cardstock for printing the page (preferably white or cream)
- pencils, pens or markers for coloring
- scissors
- double-sided tape or glue
- ruler and knife for scoring
- small hole punch
- small piece of ribbon (about 8″ or 20 cm)
How to make your Cute Cottage Bible Verse Coloring Gift Box:
- First of all, download and print out the coloring page on the card
- Color the cottage box template. Because my daughter loves shabby chic, I decided to use the Pink Roses in a Vase color palette from these shabby chic inspired color palettes.

- Cut out the gift box template and any tags you are using. Then score along the fold lines (the dashed lines).

- Using double-sided tape or glue on the tabs (marked with a blue X), stick the box together.

- Finally, punch holes in the front and back of the top of the box and tags. Now tie the gift box together at the top with the ribbon, attaching any tags you want to use.

- Now fill with a suitable little gift, such as
- some packets of seeds
- teabags
- a pretty piece of jewelry
- a small candle
- an RFID keyring (I need this!!)
