- These DIY Christmas decorations will make a great addition to your yard at Christmas time! The DIY GIANT gift boxes range in all sizes and can be customized to fit your yard! They will make a statement in your front yard. This is a fun build with these easy-to-follow steps. I will walk you through all the steps from measuring, putting everything together, painting, and assembly. These gift boxes are large, but they break apart into multiple pieces in minutes which makes storage easier. When you display them for Christmas, you can use them in the day and night! Just add a spotlight to make them shine bright at night. After you understand how to make one Christmas gift box, you can make many more with the same steps. All you will need to do is change the dimensions. Have fun with this DIY Christmas project and I wish you good luck!
I have been building DIY Christmas decorations for years for my personal Christmas display which was featured on ABC's "The Great Christmas Light Fight" (Season 7 episode 4) and we were fortunate enough to win! Now I have decided to share my DIY projects with you! I hope you enjoy and have fun building!

You are a very intelligent young man.
You are an accomplished engineer.
You are an artist of the highest ability.
You are a master carpenter and sculptor.
You are fit and handsome.
You are an appealing TV presenter, host and personality.
You are a man with an incredible journey and an extraordinary destiny.
Go with GOD
You are a magician. I can't do the math to make all the ribbons out of one 4x8 hardboard.
If I may make a suggestion. There is a lack of ideas and directions for holiday parade props. I feel you could create some wonderful items with your skill. For example, I am considering making these boxes for the parade with a rolling bases so they can be pulled by lawn mowers. Your creativity is needed in this category. Thanks
Technically if displaying offset you can leave the back open, thus saving on plywood. So for a box you could only do two sides and the top. 😜 unless you live in a corner lot or really open space. Then it gets expensive. 😂
Great video. Ya need to do one on the round one though. :)
I’m sure he used the hardboard and the joinery is hidden under the ribbon coming down the side.
I did this last year with mesh an frame Yours look so much better
Wow, you're very artistic and skillful?
I love them!
I said he’s a professional at this! These are beautiful! Great job!
very cool.....thanks for the share....
You really put a lot of thought into making these. Fabulous job!
very cool!
Those are amazing!! Great job and craftsmanship!
This is phenomenal. I'm in DFW and these gift boxes are the coolest thing.
Fabulous ~ wish I lived in USA would definitely order the full set - these boxes are amazing.
I don't think you need to live in the US to build these. He gives you the steps and material list.
Where do you live, perhaps someone local might be willing to make them for you if it's outside your skillset.
My dad would have loved these! Thank you!
Can you give measurements for a box that is smaller??? Like possibly a 3 ft box!
Great detail video, thanks for sharing
Im so impressed 👏 Great job
Those are awesome, but, if really love to see how you made the circular one.
I'm in Australia and I think MDF might have to be my go to, don't think we have anything called hardboard at the local large hardware chain where the prices are bearable!
Simply gorgeous!!!!!
I’m obsessed with everything you do ❤❤
I love this idea.....Awesome job! Thank you for sharing.
Really like details on the round one these are the best
you are awesome!
Awesome job, very cool, love them such a great idea 🎄🧑🎄☃️

Love your videos and thank you for giving the dimensions. Im going to give this a try but was wondering what is the color codes for the red and green.
I know the red was “flirt alert” from Home Depot. I will have to look what color the green was.
👍
❤❤❤
Oh my wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing. But I’m very confuse about the round gift box
For the round one I cut a circle out of plywood for the bottom and top then used the 2x2’s around the edge. I used a thin piece of plywood I was able to bend to give the round shape. If you have any more questions let me know!
Fantastic job. Where are you located ? I would like to get a complete set of these from you . Thanks 🙏
How much for a complete set and where are you located?
Looks great! Do you have any problems with these when it gets windy?
No, they are heavy enough to withstand a strong wind. I would recommend anchoring them down with concrete steaks though.
I think that's hardboard, not MDF. But that's an awesome build!!!
Yes you are correct. I always confuse the two. Thanks for catching that!
Brilliant! How much to make a set?
👍🏼👍🏼
Did u use MDF for the outside of the round one? And did u build it in 4 quarters as well and let the ribbon hid the seam? Surely it's not one or two sections only... But the sections are triangular in shape, correct?
Good job btw! Very precise!
The ribbons are made from hardboard not MDF. I said that incorrectly in the video. You can use hardboard to to make the round gift, but I used poplar sanded plywood because it was flexible. (Bend it slow so it doesn’t break in half) The round one I made it in two halves but you could do 4. I cut a plywood half circle for the top and bottom and attached 2x2’s around the edges then screwed the side on. Yes the ribbon hides the seams. It’s attached to one side and slides in the other side.
@@holidaylightingcreations could I also use 5mm under layment for the outside?
Yes just make sure you seal it well with paint. If you use it for the round one make sure you can bend it. If you use it for the square gift boxes it will change the dimension’s because it’s not 1/2”.
@@holidaylightingcreations ok, thank u! Beautiful wrk!
Really cool and really great
but that's expensive stuff
But I guess that's not the point of this video.
Nice product!!
How much are they i love them
Where are you locate at?
They look so cool
Austin, TX!
What are be dimensions and measurements for the blue gift box ?
These are amazing. However, I feel that round one is a bit more complicated than let on. Can you give insight?
It’s the same concept, I just use a different plywood so it is bendable. Feel free to email me at info@holidaylightingcreations.com if you have any questions!
How is the frame made for the round present?
Wow, That is beautiful and great job , I'm going to try making it for my school . I would love to know how to do the set for our School. Do you have the measurements ? Or how Do I go about it
I think 🤔 I'm sure he gave measurements 😉 right 🤔
Sorry I missed your point
I asked that you except my apology please , thanks in advance....
I wish you could make and send them to me!
Where the heck do you store all this during non Christmas season … :/ love the idea tho
How do you make the round box and bow ? Or how much does it cost for you to make me one ?
What was the cost for this box
What the cost of those boxes?
How do you make the round package?
You can use hardboard to to make the round gift, but I used poplar sanded plywood because it was flexible. (Bend it slow so it doesn’t break in half) The round one I made it in two halves but you could do 4. I cut a plywood half circle for the top and bottom and attached 2x2’s around the edges then screwed the side on. The ribbon hides the seams. It’s attached to one side and slides in the other side. Also, I use hardboard not mdf for the ribbon. I stated that incorrectly in the video.
How do you make the round one??
I will be making a video in 2024! Lots of interest with the round gift box. If you would like more information for this year, please email me. Contact information is on my website in description.
