Twinkle, twinkle little star, how we wonder what you are!

If you love the idea of a gender reveal party but don’t want to go to the effort of throwing a whole party, these gender reveal boxes are a great alternative to announce the gender of your baby.

Easy and affordable, family and friends will LOVE when you surprise them with this happy mail!

*If you do not have a die cutting machine you can still make these boxes!

Materials Needed (if you do not have a die cutting machine to use):

  • Kraft colored pillow boxes
  • “Twinkle Twinkle” tags (download your free printable)
  • Hot Glue
  • Scissors
  • Star punch for mini star cutouts (about .25 inch) –
  • White w/ gold polka dots cardstock
  • Glitter gold, pink and blue cardstock
  • Foam adhesive squares
  • Confetti to match gender

Materials Needed (as shown in the video):

  • Spellbinders Platinum 6
  • Contour Pillow Box Steel Rule Die
  • Kraft paper card stock
  • Hot glue
  • Shapeabilities More Than Milk Carton Special Occasions By Marisa Job Etched Dies
  • “Twinkle Twinkle” tags (download your free printable)
  • White w/ gold polka dots cardstock
  • Foam adhesive squares
  • Scissors
  • Die D-Lites Let’s Party Fun On A String Etched Dies
  • Glitter gold, pink and blue cardstock
  • Glue stick
  • Confetti to match gender

Step by Step DIY Video:

You can use adhesive squares to make the tag and gold stars pop a little more on top of the box, it adds a little extra dimension!

I also recommend only cutting one side of the pillow box at a time. You can cut multiple pages at once on the Spellbinders Platinum 6 but it was creasing the side panel too much. Taking the extra 5 seconds is worth it, can’t have the pillow box coming apart in the mail!

If you’re pregnant and stumbled upon this post looking for gender reveal ideas, congratulations! I hope you have so much fun announcing the gender of your baby with these gender reveal boxes!

I’m a stay at home mum, and an aspiring photographer. I love taking care of my home and my family, and I also adore photography. Apart from being a mummy (/nurse/teacher/confidant am I right?), I also write on this blog full time, and I’m working towards opening a photo studio (fingers crossed!)
