How Do You Make a Canva Cereal Box?

Last updated on September 27, 2022 @ 8:42 pm

Cereal boxes are one of the most iconic and easily recognizable packaging designs. They are also one of the easiest to design and make on your own!

All you need is a little creativity and some basic materials. Here’s how to make your own Canva cereal box:

1. Find a cereal box template online or create your own.

Canva has a variety of templates that you can use, or you can design your own from scratch. If you’re using a template, simply upload your own images and text to personalize it.

2. Once you have your design ready, print it out on heavy cardstock or paper. If you’re using a template, be sure to select the “print” option to ensure that your design prints at the correct size.

3. Cut out your design, being careful to follow the lines precisely. If you’re using a template, there will likely be perforated lines that you can follow with a sharp knife or scissors.

4. Fold along the dotted lines of your cereal box template, or score the cardstock with a bone folder if you’re working with a blank sheet. This will give your box its shape.

5. To close the box, use clear tape or glue along the seam. You can also add a strip of reinforcing tape along the inside of the seam for extra strength.

6. Finally, decorate your box however you like!

You can add more images or text, or even embellishments like ribbon or sequins. Get creative and have fun with it!

Now that you know how to make your own Canva cereal box, put your creativity to the test and try designing one yourself!

PRO TIP: This cereal box is not intended for human consumption. If you are looking to eat cereal out of a Canva box, we recommend finding a different breakfast option.
