Abstract
An improved label assembly for a customizable gift box has a face sheet including a carrier portion, a label, and a tearable line of separation between the carrier portion and the label, and a back sheet removably joined to the face sheet. At least one removable appendage present in the carrier portion includes a first relatively narrow edge, a second relatively wider edge, and S-shaped side edges joining the first and second edges. The removal appendage can be applied to the sidewalls of a box blank to maintain the edges of the sidewalls on an adjacent position during installation of the label. The back sheet can also be provided with one or more foldable index tabs to help position the box relative to the label assembly during installation of the label.

- a face sheet including a carrier portion, a label sized to cover the box bottom or top, and at least one tearable line of separation enabling removal of the carrier portion from the label;
- a back sheet of approximately a same size as the face sheet, the back sheet having a removable portion at least partially overlaying the label, the removable portion removable to expose an adhesive surface of the label within the face sheet;
- and an appendage cut in and removable from the carrier portion and adapted to overlap and join a lateral edge of at least one sidewall of the box blank to the adjacent lateral edge of an adjacent sidewall, the appendage including a first relatively narrow edge, a second relatively wider opposing edge, and S-shaped side edges joining the first and second edges.

- a back sheet removably joined to the face sheet;
- and at least one removable appendage cut in and removable from the carrier portion, the removable appendage removably joined to the back sheet by an adhesive material and including a first relatively narrow edge, a second relatively wider opposing edge, and S-shaped side edges joining the first and second edges, each S-shaped side edge converging with the second wider edge at a point, wherein the back sheet comprises a first removable center portion, a second removable outer portion on one side of the first removable center portion, a third removable outer portion on another side of the first removable center portion, a first tearable line of separation between the first removable center portion and the second removable outer portion, and a second tearable line of separation between the first removable center portion and the third removable outer portion, further comprising at least one foldable index tab in at least one of the second and third removable outer portions.
A label assembly, comprising:
- a face sheet including a carrier portion, a label, and at least one tearable line of separation enabling removal of the carrier portion from the label;
