Make Tiny Milk Carton Favor Boxes!
This weekend I drew a template for a teeny, tiny milk carton…and I LOVE it! Perfect for favors–for kids’ parties and showers of the bridal and baby variety especially–or use them as gift boxes. The finished size of each carton is 1 1/2″ by 1 1/2″. Here’s what you do to make one:
First, download and print the milk carton template out on to card stock. (There’s two templates per one 8 1/2″ 11″ page.)
Using a scissors, cut the template from the page.
Using a boning tool and a straight edge, score all the lines of the template.
Even the pointy lines!
Then valley-fold all the horizontal and vertical lines.
Re-fold the top fold as a mountain fold.
Cut up to the first horizontal fold as shown.
Glue the tab shut on the side of the carton. Then fold in the bottoms of the carton and glue in place.
Decorate your tiny milk carton, fill with your goodies and then glue the top shut, securing with a butterfly clip until dry.
Here’s some more decorating ideas for the cartons!
Gracias un excelente aporte.
De nada.
EXCELENTE Y ESPECTACULAR… SUPER FACIL……
Love your idea! I found it on pinterest!!! Love it…. I tried to download but it’s not working for some reason! Is there another way to do that? I have a baby shower coming up and I would LOVE to use these!!!! So cute!!!
Thank you!!!

Hey Nadya. I’m glad you like them! Scribd had archived the PDF. I recalled it, so it should work now for you.
Thank you so much for this tiny milk carton template.
I downloaded it and assembled. I used these as one of the “thank you” favors for my niece’s graduation party. I wanted to use school-theme related items for the “thank you” favors and this one was great!
I added clear labels to the sides of the cartons with my niece’s school mascot, school’s initials and school colors, etc.
Plus….I also used a hole punch. I punched a hole on the top, angled part of the carton and
cut a thin straw down to size. Adding that straw made those favors even more adorable.
Again, thank you so much. You were a big help providing the carton template.
They sound darling!
love it. going to try and make this for cow theme baby shower. cute! cute!
Milk Cartons + Cows = Perfect!!!

Thank you ladies! I’m glad you like them. And making them for American Girls??? That is just too cute!!
CUTE! I’ll be making some for our American Girl dolls to have their own individual milk cartons….just like the cafeteria at school;o)
