Hello & welcome! I have a really great idea to share with you today, and I’m so excited about it. First let me ask, do you receive Paper Pumpkin or other Stampin’ Up! craft kits? If you do, what are you doing with the empty boxes? Throwing them out? Letting them collect in the garage by the trash? Recycling them? Well, I’m here to tell you… DON’T THROW THEM OUT! You can repurpose them and make them beautiful, and today I want to share how.
Craft Kit Storage Boxes
Check out the storage boxes above. Aren’t they adorable? Can you believe I made these craft storage containers out of empty Paper Pumpkin boxes? The process isn’t hard. Keep reading and I’ll share storage ideas, all the measurements, a video with instructions as well as links to purchase Paper Pumpkin.
What Can These Boxes Store?
There are tons of different things that can be stored in these cute boxes. Here’s a quick list of things I came up with.
- markers
- adhesive
- twine
- gems
- washi tape
- spots
- blocks
- cards
- pencils
- embossing powder
There’s just a short list of the numerous possibilities. You can always use more storage and better storage in your craft area, and my favorite part of these boxes is that they look nice if you want to leave them on a shelf.
Next, let’s take a look at the video instructions for how to makes these boxes.

Hi,
Thank you very much for sharing your Paper Pumpkin boxes. I have several of the boxes and will be making them as soon as possible. We all need more storage space for our stamping supplies . I know I do. 🙂
