"We've already punched the holes using the 1/8 circle punch. I punched 2 in the top and 2 in the bottom. I just eye ball them. Some people like to go ahead punch 2 in the top, fold this flap down, make a little mark with their marker. That way all your holes are lined up correctly. The next step is we're going to take our ribbon. I like to use about a foot, 12 inches, because it's easy to make a nice big bow. You're going to start from the inside of the box. Feed your ribbon out on both sides. If you take your ribbon and cut a little angle at the end so you have a sharp point, it's a lot easier to thread. You've got your ribbon in the bottom. You want to attach here if you've done some kind of name tag or heart. Something like that. Go ahead and fill it with some nice paper, some candies, or you could put movie tickets, jewelry, or something fun like that in there. We're going to go ahead and close it right up. Tie a big bow in it. Again, you're just pushing the ribbon through the holes pulling it tight. What's nice about these boxes is I love that they tie closed because my kids can't get into them and check out what they're getting for Valentine's day. We're going to tie a quick little bow. You've got your package. It's good to go. Another Valentine's treat that your family will love."
