This year I have made three Make-It boxes for three nieces, two birthdays and one college Make-It box that kind of added a different meaning to the name Make-It. It more had extras in it. Back up stuff so to speak. Pens, a spiral, bottle of aspirin, minis, roman noodles.. that type of stuff you know. But these boxes are so fun to make and also fun to shop for. I thought I'd share my most recent Make-It box for my niece Katelyn who turned sweet sixteen today!
I used an office box that envelopes come packaged in. I covered it with vintage wallpaper that I spray glued on. Then added goodies that I have been collecting just for K.K. You can go wild and shop for all kinds of stuff and miss the point of things. We keep a birthday budget most of the time of twenty five bucks and under since there's so darned many of us! Here's a look at the loot.
I covered the box on the outside of this one. Just measure, cut, spray and stick.
Vintage Pyrex coffee cup with chocolate mint B&B Works hand sanitizer.
Spiral, journal, bobby pins, ink pens, turquoise feather head band and earrings.
ModPodge, be-dazzle rhinestones, lip gloss and a special something wrapped up.
Topped off with a vintage scarf to top off that drab outfit.
Elastic rick rack to hold it all together.
Isn't she just gorgeous! Happy Birthday K!
