These gift boxes are surprisingly easy to make. I got the idea and instructions from Youtube. Unfortunately I cannot remember the ladies name or what she called these balls.
However I can remember the measurements she gave made the smaller red ball. I was a little disappointed that I couldn't get very much in the gift box when finished. So I scaled it up a bit for the green ball. Again I felt this was still too small. I could probably get a tightly rolled up pair of men's socks in the green ball and a small piece of jewellery in the red one. So I scaled it up again to make the blue one. Now this size would probably be a good size to fill with individually wrapped sweets or chocolates.
But I wanted it bigger still. So I scaled it up again. This time each face measured 2 inches square.
This gave me a much bigger ball, in which I could fit 5 or 6 bags of sweets and several lollipops.
