Valentine’s Day Gift Box DIY

Less than 2 weeks until Valentine’s Day! Here’s a sweet DIY project that your Valentine is sure to love!

For this project, you will need the following supplies:

Step One:

Select the box that you would like to use for your project. Since this one is Valentine’s Day themed, we chose a heart-shaped box and painted it red.

If you use an acrylic paint, one coat should be enough to cover it completely. Let the paint dry completely before going on to the next step.

Tip: This is a versatile project that could easily be customized for any holiday or even a birthday. You could use different shaped boxes and paint colors, or even sponge on a second color!

Step Two:

Stuff the box with the white crinkle paper nearly to the top, and place your Blossom Bucket item on top.

We used the “You Have My Heart” Angel designed by Dan DiPaolo for our project.

Tip: If you’re customizing this project, don’t be afraid to branch out into other colors with the crinkle paper as well; just be careful that it doesn’t detract from your selected Blossom Bucket item. You’ll want something that will help your item stand out!

Step Three:

Now, just sprinkle some colorfully wrapped Valentine’s Day candies around your gift item!

Tip: Check out the Valentine’s Day category on our website for additional items that would be perfect for this project!
