@@WatchDogNeverSleeps I would imagine a lot since it's made of wood. going to attempt to make it using foam insulation boards to make it more lightweight.
You are a very intelligent young man. You are an accomplished engineer. You are an artist of the highest ability. You are a master carpenter and sculptor. You are fit and handsome. You are an appealing TV presenter, host and personality. You are a man with an incredible journey and an extraordinary destiny. Go with GOD
Nice job, and thanks for the correction on the MDF, which I don't think would hold up very well. Also, I lvie in a very high wind area, and I don't see those bows lasting long. I also appreciated you primed AND painted the wood. It will hold up much better that way.
Bro you're an absolute master! You made the process so simple its tempting to try it (on a small size tho lol) but I'm equally tempted to just buy them directly from you!
If I may make a suggestion. There is a lack of ideas and directions for holiday parade props. I feel you could create some wonderful items with your skill. For example, I am considering making these boxes for the parade with a rolling bases so they can be pulled by lawn mowers. Your creativity is needed in this category. Thanks
Technically if displaying offset you can leave the back open, thus saving on plywood. So for a box you could only do two sides and the top. 😜 unless you live in a corner lot or really open space. Then it gets expensive. 😂
Those are awesome, but, if really love to see how you made the circular one. I'm in Australia and I think MDF might have to be my go to, don't think we have anything called hardboard at the local large hardware chain where the prices are bearable!
Storage for these oversized displays has to be insane. Something I have noticed on quite a few different sites is that none of them address the issue of making these display items easily disassembled down for storage and then easily reassembled the next year. I like the suggestion someone else made for wheels. That would make moving them easier.
It all unbolts, so should be easy to store. You'll have the lid and four flat walls. One assumes if you're doing this level of decoration, you have somewhere to put it!
Great informative video! I wonder if 1/4" plywood would be thick enough? 1/2" just sems too thick and would cause those dang boxes to be SUPER heavy when all built. I think it should just be heavy enough NOT to blow away in a winter storm, otherwise the extra weight is unnecessary and the extra cost with today's wood prices!
For the round one I cut a circle out of plywood for the bottom and top then used the 2x2’s around the edge. I used a thin piece of plywood I was able to bend to give the round shape. If you have any more questions let me know!
Did u use MDF for the outside of the round one? And did u build it in 4 quarters as well and let the ribbon hid the seam? Surely it's not one or two sections only... But the sections are triangular in shape, correct? Good job btw! Very precise!
The ribbons are made from hardboard not MDF. I said that incorrectly in the video. You can use hardboard to to make the round gift, but I used poplar sanded plywood because it was flexible. (Bend it slow so it doesn’t break in half) The round one I made it in two halves but you could do 4. I cut a plywood half circle for the top and bottom and attached 2x2’s around the edges then screwed the side on. Yes the ribbon hides the seams. It’s attached to one side and slides in the other side.
Yes just make sure you seal it well with paint. If you use it for the round one make sure you can bend it. If you use it for the square gift boxes it will change the dimension’s because it’s not 1/2”.
Hi There, Love your gift boxes. Would welcome pricing on all 4 shapes. I would also ask can they be shipped and from which state? Thank You Very much, Chris Fernicola
Wow, That is beautiful and great job , I'm going to try making it for my school . I would love to know how to do the set for our School. Do you have the measurements ? Or how Do I go about it
It’s the same concept, I just use a different plywood so it is bendable. Feel free to email me at info@holidaylightingcreations.com if you have any questions!
Hi! I love Your video and this year I’m gonna make these gifts :) do you think that MDF would be ok outside, cause I live in Europe, so it has to be waterproof… I thought about impregnating MDF or using MFP? Or maybe You could recommend something different :)
In the video I meant to say Hardboard instead of MDF. You could also use some type of resin to coat them to make them stronger. If you use fiberglass resin, they will be waterproof.

Correction- The bows are Hardboard, not MDF. I stated it incorrectly in the video.

You are a magician. I can't do the math to make all the ribbons out of one 4x8 hardboard.
Great video. Ya need to do one on the round one though. :)
I’m sure he used the hardboard and the joinery is hidden under the ribbon coming down the side.

I love these, but would love a video of how you store them lol
You really put a lot of thought into making these. Fabulous job!

I'm already started making this gift box. My box top is completed.
Awesome! Good luck.
Those are awesome, but, if really love to see how you made the circular one.
I'm in Australia and I think MDF might have to be my go to, don't think we have anything called hardboard at the local large hardware chain where the prices are bearable!
Looks awesome!
Beautiful boxes, clear thorough instructions....SUBBED!

Holy MOLY😮 THOSE ARE SPECTACULAR ❤
I loved God bless you
Awesome job, very cool, love them such a great idea 🎄🧑🎄☃️
These are fantastic!
Sooooo cute ❤❤❤❤❤
I love them!
very cool.....thanks for the share....
So cute boxes 👍👍👍👍
Can you give measurements for a box that is smaller??? Like possibly a 3 ft box!

Love your videos and thank you for giving the dimensions. Im going to give this a try but was wondering what is the color codes for the red and green.
I know the red was “flirt alert” from Home Depot. I will have to look what color the green was.
Due to the cost id make these out of cardboard maybe support with 2x2. Id paint and wrap in plastic in case of rain.
Wow, you're very artistic and skillful?
I love it 🥰, but not creative like you in wood working!
Fantastic job. Where are you located ? I would like to get a complete set of these from you . Thanks 🙏
How much for a complete set and where are you located?

I think it should just be heavy enough NOT to blow away in a winter storm, otherwise the extra weight is unnecessary and the extra cost with today's wood prices!
Yes, you should be able to use 1/4”. It would just change the dimensions slightly on the sides. The 2x2 frame should hold it up just fine.
These are soooooo cool! 👏👏👏👍🙌
Amazing!!❤❤❤ Love it!
Oh my wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing. But I’m very confuse about the round gift box
For the round one I cut a circle out of plywood for the bottom and top then used the 2x2’s around the edge. I used a thin piece of plywood I was able to bend to give the round shape. If you have any more questions let me know!
you are awesome!
Awesome
I would like to see frame work and list of material for round one
How much for 2 boxes ❤love this
Also, what do you charge for a small, medium and a large box?
Great job. Question: what about rain, snow, standing water on the top of the gift box?
I put fiberglass resin over the top of the lids to prevent the water from causing damage.
Looks great! Do you have any problems with these when it gets windy?
No, they are heavy enough to withstand a strong wind. I would recommend anchoring them down with concrete steaks though.
Did u use MDF for the outside of the round one? And did u build it in 4 quarters as well and let the ribbon hid the seam? Surely it's not one or two sections only... But the sections are triangular in shape, correct?
Good job btw! Very precise!

@@holidaylightingcreations could I also use 5mm under layment for the outside?
Yes just make sure you seal it well with paint. If you use it for the round one make sure you can bend it. If you use it for the square gift boxes it will change the dimension’s because it’s not 1/2”.
@@holidaylightingcreations ok, thank u! Beautiful wrk!
Brilliant! How much to make a set?
How long did it take you to make the largest one?
Where are you locate at?
They look so cool
Austin, TX!
I’m in Granbury. Would you sell these? I would drive.
Hi There, Love your gift boxes. Would welcome pricing on all 4 shapes. I would also ask can they be shipped and from which state? Thank You Very much, Chris Fernicola

I think 🤔 I'm sure he gave measurements 😉 right 🤔
Sorry I missed your point
I asked that you except my apology please , thanks in advance....
These are amazing. However, I feel that round one is a bit more complicated than let on. Can you give insight?
It’s the same concept, I just use a different plywood so it is bendable. Feel free to email me at info@holidaylightingcreations.com if you have any questions!
I think that's hardboard, not MDF. But that's an awesome build!!!
Yes you are correct. I always confuse the two. Thanks for catching that!
Now show us how you made the rounded one!
Hope this isn’t a dumb question but if I cut all these dimensions in half will it still work?
Hi! I love Your video and this year I’m gonna make these gifts :) do you think that MDF would be ok outside, cause I live in Europe, so it has to be waterproof… I thought about impregnating MDF or using MFP? Or maybe You could recommend something different :)

Hey can you give me the dimensions for your rectangle one I want to start building that as well
👍
How do you make the round box and bow ? Or how much does it cost for you to make me one ?
What are the prices to have you build?
Please email us at info@holidaylightingcreations.com for more information. Thanks!
How much are they i love them
What the cost of those boxes?
how do I acquire about getting you to make me a set?
I would like to know the prices please.
How is the frame made for the round present?
What are be dimensions and measurements for the blue gift box ?
I wish you could make and send them to me!
Where the heck do you store all this during non Christmas season … :/ love the idea tho
❤❤❤
How much for a set and delivery?
I want a set.. How much are they
How Are they stored?
All the sides break apart so they can be stored flat against the storage room wall. You have to take the bows off for storage so they don’t break.
How do you make the round package?
You can use hardboard to to make the round gift, but I used poplar sanded plywood because it was flexible. (Bend it slow so it doesn’t break in half) The round one I made it in two halves but you could do 4. I cut a plywood half circle for the top and bottom and attached 2x2’s around the edges then screwed the side on. The ribbon hides the seams. It’s attached to one side and slides in the other side. Also, I use hardboard not mdf for the ribbon. I stated that incorrectly in the video.
Can you give a sheet of supplies needed? You went over the measurements so fast I could not write that fast. Thanks
Now to fold it up and pack it away 😳
How heavy?
Can you please direct me to the instructions to the round gift
We currently do not have instructions for the round one yet. If we have time this year, we will try to make another video.
Really cool and really great
but that's expensive stuff
But I guess that's not the point of this video.
Nice product!!
