What to plan for a custom gift box
Theme
A clear theme sets the emotional and visual tone for your custom gift box. Think about the occasion or recipient—birthday, holiday, wedding, or branding. It guides colors, typography, and decorations for a cohesive, delightful unboxing experience.
Dimensions
Gift box sizes can vary depending on the items inside. A small standard gift box typically measures around 200 × 150 × 80 mm—compact and perfect for candles, jewelry, or small accessories. Larger boxes for apparel or bundled gifts may go up to 400 × 300 × 120 mm.
Material
Choosing the right material impacts durability and appearance. Consider the weight and fragility of your gift to select the best material for protection and presentation. Common options include sturdy cardboard, kraft paper, and rigid paperboard.

Harold Muniz Ortiz
Pacdora has saved me so much time as a designer. I've been able to focus on designing, rather than dealing with dielines. The best feature is the easy customization of the templates to fit your packaging needs and the 3D renders that clearly show what the product will look like.
AM
I'm a graphic design student and find Pacdora extremely helpful when mocking up projects. The convenience of Pacdora allows me to spend more time on designing rather than figuring out all the technical nuances in building dielines. Highly recommend Pacdora.
