Christmas Card Boxes & Christmas Card Packaging | Sharp Custom Boxes
Custom Christmas Card Packaging Built for the Festive Season
We make custom boxes for your Christmas cards that keep cards secure and make them feel like a gift when they’re opened. If you’re an independent designer packing a boxed set of cards for a stall at a festival, if you’re a retailer filling shelves for the holidays, or if you’re a business sending personalized season’s greetings to clients, we provide exactly what you need – the right size, board, and printing.
Every box is made to order in the UK so there are never any stock sizes, and we’re always able to provide you with a box that does the selling for you before anyone even opens it. Tell us how many cards you’d like to pack and what look you want.
Why Christmas Card Packaging Actually Matters
A card is small, flat, easily damaged, which is why the box around it weighs so much. Good packaging helps stop corners and edges from creasing when the card is in transit, keeps a set of cards from flopping around in a bag, and gives the product shelf presence that no piece of cellophane wrap can match.
For businesses, this is a brand moment. A well-printed box adorned with your logo, cheery artwork, or foil graphics tells the customer that it’s not something to put in the trash and chuck away, it’s a gift. For independent card designers and small businesses, custom packaging can make the difference between looking home made and looking expensive enough to justify the cost.
Boxed Christmas Card Sets
Boxed sets are boxes of cards inserted into a printed box to be sold as is. This is the most common format for retailers and online sellers who want their cards unbound when they drop the product on a shelf or knock on a customer’s door.
Empty Christmas Card Boxes
Some customers prefer boxes without cards so they can put in their own designs, mix a couple of styles together, or build a custom bundle for a specific client or collection. This gives card makers complete control over the appearance while still getting a professional, branded box.
Rigid and Luxury Christmas Card Boxes
For a step above standard boxing, our rigid boxes offer thicker board, a magnetic or lift-off lid, and a soft-touch finish. These are great for hand-made cards, corporate gifts, or any other product that needs to be as thoughtfully packaged as the card inside it.
Christmas Card Mailer Boxes
When you’re sending a card through the mail, rather than bringing it to her home personally, a mailer box is a better choice. They are flat and light-weight, and designed to be easily transported by the mail without being bent or arriving damaged, whether you’re sending one card or a set of several.
Christmas Card Display Boxes
Retailers and market sellers often require packaging that stands upright and tidy on a counter or stall. Our display boxes are built stronger for this purpose, so that stock is easily visible when card packs are being sold in person.
Materials We Use
Board choice affects the strength and how premium a box feels, so we offer several options depending on the job. Kraft board is natural and recyclable and perfect for eco-conscious businesses and rustic festive packaging. Cardstock is lightweight and easy to print, making it a great choice for boxed card sets. Corrugated board (E-flute or B-flute) adds extra strength and is the better choice for anything going through the post. Rigid board is thicker and solid and ideal for luxury boxes and gift boxes where presentation matters.
Printing Options
Printing makes a plain box your brand packaging. Offset printing is ideal for larger runs of boxes, as it delivers consistent colour in every box produced. Digital printing is best for small runs or personalised designs, and does not require a plate to print. It also can be done faster on custom orders.
Finishing Options
Beyond printing, finishing touches add texture and shine to make packaging feel high-end. Foil stamping applies a metallic gold or silver detail to highlight a logo. Embossing and debossing raise or press the surface for a tactile effect without the need for extra colour. Spot UV illuminates selected areas of a matte box with a high gloss, while soft-touch coating gives the whole surface a velvety premium feel.
Why Choose Sharp Custom Boxes
The Box Box Store prints and ships from within the UK, so we can print and ship fast during the busy pre-Christmas period. We don’t have a minimum quantity required to exclude retailers or bulk orders. No boxes are too small or too large; all of our packaging is recyclable, and we walk you through the design before printing so you know exactly what to expect.
Where to Buy a Box of Christmas Cards
A box of Christmas cards is available direct from Sharp Custom Boxes in boxes, empty boxes, or designs entirely customized around your artwork. We take orders from small custom orders to bulk orders for major retailers.
How to Make a Christmas Card Gift Box
if you want to make your own, you’ll need cardstock, a ruler, and scissors to measure, fold, and glue a simple box by hand. It’s quicker and more consistent for most customers to order a pre-made or custom-printed box from us and then insert your cards inside and seal it.
What Is the Best Type of Box for Packaging Christmas Cards
For retail, choose a strong box with a lift-off lid or lid magnetic to protect the cards and look like a gift itself. If you’re sending just one card, opt for a thin mailer box that fits standard letterboxes and adds less bulk to the parcel.
Can Christmas Card Boxes Be Custom Printed With My Logo
Yes. You can personalise each box with your logo, photos, or personal message. You can also finish them off with foil stamping, embossing, or spot UV to make your brand pop.
How Many Boxes Can I Order at Once
We can do custom sizes in small batches for independent sellers and bulk quantities for retailers, so you don’t need to order extras you don’t need.
Is the Packaging Eco-Friendly
Yes. Kraft and other recyclable board options are available for customers wanting sustainable packaging without losing out on print quality or finish.
How Long Does Delivery Take Within the UK
Production and delivery are always on time, even during the busy Christmas ordering period. Just specify your deadline at the time of ordering.
