DIY Paper Source Favor Boxes

These six-sided paper source favor boxes are easy to make and add a unique touch to your party. You can fill them with candy or whatever! I made the example box with a paper lining, but this is unnecessary, it only makes the box look pretty on the inside. The box is cut from one sheet of 12 x 12 cardstock and is held together with a little bit of glue. The paper flower is a snap to make, just cut out circles of paper fold and glue.
