Default 2-4-6-8

2-4-6-8 box
Okay I made the box and really like it but I am lost on how to close it. I tried the rectangle punch. It was really hard to punch through all the layers and it was hard to tie the ribbon. What do you do?
Thanks

Default well...

That's how I do it. It helps if you have an extra pair of hands to hold the ribbon while you tie a knot. Sometimes I need to use both hands to get the punch to go through the paper.

You could also use mini brads, or a spiral clip.

I use mini brads...sometimes I make an itty bitty topper for the box!
