Here's a collection of romantic gift boxes, each with its own unique theme. From the adventurous "Jungle Embrace" with its hidden jungle animals, to the playful "Emoticon-nection", and the coffee-lover's "Espresso Your Love", there's a box to capture every heart. These boxes are more than just containers; they're a new way to express affection. With an interior size of 50mm x 50mm x 25mm, they pack a lot of love into a compact, easily foldable design when printed.
Choose a base color and an artwork color to bring your box to life. You can't go wrong by selecting black for your base color and red for the artwork. But you can also customize each box with your own color choices. The contrast between dark and light colors adds a dramatic effect, and you can even swap these colors to create a unique "negative" box. We've had great results with Bambu Lab PLA in Matte Charcoal, Ivory White, Dark Red, and Ash Grey. If you don't have an Automatic Material System (AMS), you can manually swap filaments after pausing on layer #4 to make these multi-color prints.
Each box offers a delightful surprise as it unfolds from a flat print to a three-dimensional box in about an hour. They require less filament than a Benchy, making them an eco-friendly choice. For the best outcome, we recommend not scaling the box to maintain its easy foldability along the designed lines. A 0.2mm first layer followed by 0.1mm layers ensures a smooth print. A clean first layer is vital for a successful print, so take a moment to tidy up your print bed before starting.
Assembling your box is a simple and satisfying process. Start by folding up the walls, fold in the corner triangles, and tuck them behind the two flaps. Next, tuck each flap into the bottom holes. Closing the box is accomplished by lifting one half of the heart, lower the other, and slide them together to seal your gift inside.
Fill them with sweet treats, a heartfelt note, or a special trinket. These boxes are a creative and personal way to show your love.
