I going to let everyone in on a secret about me. I love boxes. I'm addicted to them. All shapes and sizes. I save them for all kinds of projects, gifts, whatever strikes my fancy. And once I have them in my possession I hate to let them go. Believe me, you can do so much with just an plain, ordinary box. With just a little Mod Podge, the right tissue paper, some cute embellishments and a little imagination you could turn a plain brown box into a child's secret box. A box where he/she can hide away all of their most prized treasures.
Today, however, a quick gift box.
Supplies needed:
Mod Podge
Box
Various tissue papers
paint brush
embellishments (ribbons, buttons, beads, etc.)
Hot glue gun
Lay the tissue on the box. With the paint brush, smooth a thin coat of Mod Podge over the top of the tissue to adhere to the box. Allow to dry clear. Use embellishments to decorate as you wish. And you have a cute gift box to use the next time you need to wrap a quick gift!

ReplyDeleteI've never used Mod Podge before but I keep hearing more and more about it these days. Maybe with your simple tutorial here, I'll give it a shot.
