Free Printable Color in Gift Boxes for Adults * Moms and Crafters

Last week, I brought you a fun set of color in gift boxes for kids. I did promise you an adult version, so here you go!

Coloring adult coloring pages can be fun, and I do offer some here on the blog.

But isn’t it more fun when you can make something 3 dimensional and functional?

I kept these relatively simple so that you can use them even if you are giving multiple gifts. They are small (so that they can fit on a single sheet of paper) and perfect for chocolates, jewelry, magnets, and other trinkets and small gifts.

Bonus tip: if you are giving them to an adult coloring friend, leave it blank and let her color it in! You can even wrap it with a bow tied around a few mini pencils or markers…

I decided to go all out on this one and try a new twist. For one of the boxes, I tried some metallic accents using a gold paint marker. It added a great touch, though, with my toddler’s help, I wasn’t able to be too much of a perfectionist. Tip: test it outside the lines to make sure you have the right flow before coloring your boxes.

For the other, I just went with a fun, floral color scheme using markers for a bold, easy finish.

I think that this is a great way to add a personal touch to a gift! It’s free, easy, and so on-trend now.

How to assemble your color in gift boxes:

Assembly is super easy, as I’ve placed the markers directly onto the printed box:

Print on cardstock (or your box won’t be worth much)
Cut along the outside solid edge.
Fold dotted lines inward
Tape along the two front edges using invisible tape.

You can see step-by-step photo instructions on the kid version if you’d like.

Some pro tips:

For a cleaner fold, you can score using the dull side of a craft knife and a ruler.
Print on light colored cardstock for a fun alternative. Keep in mind, some color might show through.
You can glue it shut using tacky glue if you’d like (it just takes a little longer – but it’s more discreet.)
