Make A Mini Holiday Gift Box

Jazz up a mini gift box with a few craft supplies. You can customize the box with chipboard letters or stickers. This project can also serve as a fun place-card holder for your holiday gatherings and meals. You can whip them up in under 20 minutes. Check out your local dollar stores for small trees and other ornaments that can be glued to the top.

Materials:
FolkArt ® Acrylic Colors - Sawgrass
FolkArt ® Extreme Glitter™ - Silver
FolkArt ® Texture Paint - Sparkle
Small paper box
Foam paintbrush
Small glass pebbles
Bottlebrush tree
Pearl
Chipboard letter
Ribbon
Velvet flowers
Glittered leaves
Rhinestones

Steps:

1. Paint the box with the sawgrass paint. Use 2 coats if necessary. Add small glass pebble to the box for weight.

2. Add texture paint to the bottlebrush tree. Allow to dry. Hot glue a pearl to the top of the tree.

3. Paint the chipboard letter with Extreme Glitter Silver.

4. Hot glue a ribbon around the box. Hot glue the tree to the center of the box and the letter to the front. Add the floral rhinestone embellishments, attach with hot glue.
