Upcycled Gift Boxes

The big red and pink day is tomorrow and this little doodad is very easy to do. And quick to complete.

Scrounge up a couple of empty containers and puffy paint. My containers used to hold drink mix pouches.

 

Do a doodle.

Allow to dry.

Fill with candy, homemade treats, trinkets, something sparkly or all of the above if you really smash them in there.

The puffy paint does peel off. Love Bug tested it. It’s not so bad though. Not only are mistakes really easy to remedy but these containers can be re-doodled over and over again.

Love Bug and I are going to decorate cookies later today and I have a couple other V-Day decorations I know she will love. Sweet J will love them as well except he will pretend he’s too macho for them and try to get into the garbage cupboard again.

I will share my little treat bag for MJ tomorrow. I had him go out and get the candy for it and I basically explained what it will look like however, I don’t want him to actually see it until tomorrow. Oh, the suspense!!! :)

Take care.
