Cut a piece of ribbon to about 12". Thread the ribbon through your punchhole. Make sure that the ribbon is even on both sides of the container. Now take your gum and use it to push down the ribbon all the way to the bottom. Tie the ribbon in a knot(or bow) about an inch from the top of the container. Cut off any excess ribbon above the knot.

When you pull on the ribbon the gum will move up the cardboard container and out of the package. To finish this make sure there are no ugly lines or cuts, exposed tape or poorly shortened ribbon.

These take almost no time to make and add that special 'hand-made' touch to your Valentine's Day. Thanks for reading.
