Gable boxes are a common style of packaging where the top closes to form a handle with which the box can be carried. This gives them the appearance of a small closed basket and they can be used for a few different purposes.
Generally, gable boxes are manufactured from cardboard or plastic to give them a little strength and many are produced with a colorful finished appearance. This can make them a good choice as simple gift packaging and they can easily be used by those giving birthday, Christmas and anniversary presents.
A gable box can also prove useful for storage purposes and anyone that is into arts and crafts hobbies will find them a good way to store their materials. Many of the plastic models are made clear to make it easy to see the contents and the plastic provides additional rigidity that helps keep the contents safe and in good condition.
