Making your own favour boxes can be as difficult or as easy as you make it. If you're having a lot of guests it may be a good idea to just go for a simple method for decorating, like banding. Banding is simply one strip of ribbon wrapped around a box, but it can have lots of different looks depending on the ribbon and box you use. Some great boxes can be found at {Sonboniere} and ribbons at {Ribbons Galore}.
You will need:
A length of Ribbon
A box
Some good Ribbon Scissors
Double sided tape or a hot glue gun
Step 1.If the ribbon you are using has a front side and a back side, place ribbon front side down. Turn box upside down and center it on top of ribbon.
Step 2.Check length of ribbon by wrapping it around the box and cut ribbon so that the ends overlap at least ½”.
Step 3.Place a piece of double-sided tape or a drop of glue between overlapping layers. Gently tighten ribbon around box and join ends.
