How to embellish a plain box in under 5 minutes
To decorate a plain box, all you need is a few pieces of decorative paper, adhesive and scissors (pencil optional).
- First, start off with some decorative paper that you like, or think would match your box nicely.
- Next, Draw out (or print off) a silhouette of an image. It can be anything you like, flowers, animals, machines…
- Then, cut out the silhouettes from your decorative paper.
- Finally, arrange the cut outs however you like on the box and secure with adhesive. *hint* I personally like to add depth to projects, so I tend to secure a small spot on the cut out and curl or lightly fold some of the pieces up to give it a more 3D effect.
