Butter Box Template with a Name Label
This butter box template has a blank label on the front where you write a name, and it's free to print. The finished box is 30 x 30 x 110 mm. It makes a cute place card or party favour.
Quick answer
Print at 100 % and write the name before folding. Then cut out the net, fold, glue the tab and close the ends. Cutting is done by an adult. The box isn't for under-threes.

A butter box with your name on it
A blank label turns the butter box into something personal. Write a name, a date or a short message.

The sides are a soft butter colour with a cream label on the front. Writing is easier while the net is still flat, so do the lettering first and fold afterwards, and the label stays straight and readable on the finished box.
Write first, fold second.
