Claims19
A gift packaging kit for preparing a gift item for an occasion, the gift packaging kit comprising:
- a gift box, including a first portion and a second portion configured to be assembled together and form an enclosure for receiving the gift item within, the first portion and the second portion each having a collapsed configuration and an assembled configuration;
- a gift box sleeve that is configured to slide over and at least partially cover an outer surface of the gift box in the assembled configuration;
- an envelope configured to be received within a receptacle located on the gift box sleeve;
- a card, removably receivable within the envelope;
- a packing material;
- and
- a container that is configured to hold the first portion in the collapsed configuration, the second portion in the collapsed configuration, the gift box sleeve in a collapsed state, the envelope, and the packing material in a folded configuration, thereby storing all elements of the gift packaging kit in a flattened, generally planar configuration to minimize space needs for storage or transport of the gift packaging kit.
A method of assembling a gift box, the method comprising:
- lifting a first wall and a second wall of a first portion of the gift box away from an interior of the first portion;
- lifting a first wall and a second wall of a second portion of the gift box away from an interior of the second portion;
- aligning a corner tab located on the first wall of the first portion with an interior side of the second wall of the first portion;
- placing a locking corner located on the corner tab of the first wall of the first portion within a corresponding locking orifice located on the second wall of the first portion such that the locking orifice receives at least a portion of the locking corner and the such that the locking corner passes from an interior of the first portion to an exterior of the first portion, forming an inside corner on the first portion;
- aligning a corner tab located on the first wall of the second portion with an interior side of the second wall of the second portion;
- placing a locking corner located on the corner tab of the first wall of the second portion within a corresponding locking orifice located on the second wall of the second portion such that the locking orifice receives at least a portion of the locking corner and the such that the locking corner passes from an interior of the second portion to an exterior of the second portion, forming an inside corner on the second portion;
- and
- assembling the first portion with the second portion such that an enclosure for receiving a gift item within is formed,
- wherein each of the locking orifices includes a locking member that is generally triangular in shape, with the locking member including an arcuate shape at a base corner portion of the triangular shape, the arcuate shape configured to retain the corresponding locking corner on the corner tab to maintain the first and second walls in an extended and assembled configuration.
