Welcome to the Thinking outside the box Blog Hop!  I am so excited to have you join me today for this awesome hop!  We are creating Straw Baskets and I have to say I was intimidated by this at first but I found out that it is actually super easy to make and my FAVORITE PART is that there are not very many measurements to make this adorable box!

For this box, I did everything the same, except I started with a 9 x 12" piece of printed paper, which creates a slightly larger box!  The little card insert is 2 1/4 x 1 3/4"

Here are the steps for creating your box:
