SVG Shirt Favour Boxes

Great news! You can now make my shirt favour boxes using a digital cutting machine! I have converted the templates into SVGs, and these are now available in my Etsy shop.

Ideal for birthdays, Father's Day, retirement gifts or wedding favours, these little shirt boxes are easy to assemble, and I just know you're going to have such fun experimenting with different shirt and tie designs!

To make the boxes, you will need:

* Shirt Favour Box template (PDF and SVG available)
* Computer and printer to print the PDF templates and instructions
* Digital cutting machine (I have only tested this on my Cricut machines)
* Patterned or coloured cardstock (220-250gsm recommended)
* Thinner patterned or coloured card for the ties (160-200gsm)
* Craft glue / PVA
* Sparkly gems or other small embellishments for the buttons
* Fineliner pens if you prefer to draw the buttons on.

If you are not using a cutting machine you will also need:

* Craft knife / scissors
* Scoring tool
* Ruler

Watch my video tutorial showing how to assemble the boxes:


You have the option of adding a tie to your shirt boxes, either a regular tie or a bow tie.

TIP: If you choose to make a stripey tie, make sure that the stripes on the top part are facing in the opposite direction to the rest of the tie. This makes it look more realistic.
And if you would like to make these two checked shirt boxes, you can find the PDF templates here.

Don't they look amazing all lined up together! You could maybe personalise them for someone special, recreating their favourite shirts.


You could also team one up with my dress favour box, for a unique his and hers gift!

Happy crafting!

PDF Checked Shirt Favour Boxes

After recently launching my Christmas jumper boxes, I have adapted the template slightly to create these amazingly realistic checked shirt boxes!

The templates to make these two checked shirt boxes are available as PDFs in my Etsy shop. There is also a black and white PDF template available (outline only) which will allow you to create a shirt box using any coloured or patterned cardstock of your choice.
