PDF Rose Tea Party Set

In anticipation of warmer, sunny days and with Mother's Day on the horizon, I have created this pretty printable rose tea party set!

Consisting of a beautiful teapot box with removable lid and a matching teacup and saucer these easy to assemble favour boxes are certain to delight and will be the talk of the party!


I've also included a larger version of the saucer, which will make a perfectly matching tea plate / side plate, just right for holding wrapped chocolates or biscuits!

The templates are available as full colour PDFs and are designed for use on A4 photo quality paper (white, glossy 220-250gsm / 80-90lb recommended), however they can be re-sized before printing. All of the instructions are written clearly in English.

To make your very own rose favour box tea set, you will need:


* Computer and printer to print the PDF templates
* Plain white cardstock or photo quality paper (glossy 220-250gsm / 80-92lb recommended)
* Craft glue / double-sided tape
* Craft knife / scissors
* Scoring tool
* Ruler

Approximate dimensions of teapot box: 16cm (W) x 10.2cm (H) x 7.8cm (D) / 6.3" (W) x 4" (H) x 3.1" (D).

Approximate dimensions of teacup: 11cm (W) x 4.7cm (H) x 8cm (D) / 4.3" (W) x 1.85" (H) x 3.15" (D).

Approximate dimensions of tea plate: 12cm (W) x 1.2cm (H) x 11cm (D)  /  4.7" (W) x 0.5" (H) x 4.3" (D). 

Watch my video tutorial showing how to assemble the boxes and be sure to follow the tips below:


TIP 1 : Printing the PDF templates onto glossy photo paper will give the boxes a realistic, shiny finish.

TIP 2 : Match the patterned hexagon with the pattern on the saucer (and the tea plate) to give it a seamless look.


TIP 3 : For the teapot lid, start at the left side and tuck the six flaps into each other so that they all meet in the centre.

You can print and make as many of these items as you wish and fill them with lots of little treats! Perfect for Mother's Day celebrations, wedding favours, afternoon tea parties and so much more!

I really hope you like this pretty tea set and will feel inspired to create your very own!

SVG Tuxedo Favour Box

Following on from my bestselling shirt favour boxes, I have now created a template for a super stylish tuxedo favour box!

Ideal for birthdays, Father's Day or wedding favours, these little boxes are easy to assemble, and are perfect for gifting sweets or small treats! They can even hold a gift card!

You can even use the template to make a regular suit jacket box using any coloured or patterned cardstock you like. You could even personalise it for a wedding or other special occasion using a particular colour scheme. And how about adding a matching tie and handkerchief! The possibilities are endless!

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!

Updated Pencil Box

Hello, and welcome to my final blog post of 2021!

Towards the end of this year I started making some of my pencil favour boxes for end of term gifts, and it occurred to me that instead of just using a patterned cardstock for the main piece, I could use a plain colour cardstock as a base and add some patterned paper panels on top to give it a smoother, cleaner look. The extra layer also provides added strength to the main part of the box.

Doesn't this one look amazing with its delicate Christmas paper panels?
