We were asked to provide a decorated Valentine's box for Grace's preschool. They are doing a Valentine's card exchange.
I went around and around with different ideas for a box and couldn't decide. Finally, it dawned on me to ask her what she wanted.
And of course she said she wanted a princess box. Should have guessed!
So here is what I made for her.
I couldn't find a shoebox that I felt was the right size so I ended up buying a plain white craft storage box at Michael's. I also envisioned Disney princess style scrapbook paper to decorate the box with, but they don't sell it at Michael's anymore. Just the stickers and embellishments. So I found this glitter paper. I like it better! I also added felt glittered crowns to each corner. The heart stickers are also felt with glitter. I used the Hello Kitty Font cartridge to cut out her name using my Cricut.
The crown was an extra she had from her dress up clothes. She has plenty so I am sure she won't miss this one. The princess stickers I bought at Michael's. I spent a little more that I had planned to, but I love how her box came out.
Poor little Caleb...he doesn't need one, but I have decided to make him a Thomas the Train box. More to come...
Blessings,
