Add the Ribbon
For this step you'll need your box, your 3/4" ribbon, scrap paper and glue stick.

Measure out the ribbon by placing it on the box. Cut your pieces a little long, remembering that you'll want them to carry over the insides of the box bottom and top. Decide which side of the ribbon you want to be face up. Place the ribbon face down on the scrap paper and apply the glue stick along its back (Photo 1). Start at the inside (Photo 2) and affix the ribbon to the center of the box, taking care to keep it straight (Photo 3). Repeat on the box top and check your alignment (Photo 4). Same as the stripes, the ribbon should line up (Photo 5).
