By LeNae Gerig

This acrylic box is perfect for a gift—fill it with a favorite candy for a Valentine’s treat or make several and hand them as your child’s party (you can always adjust the ribbon color to fit a theme!).


 

 

 

 

 

Supplies:

  • 1 1/8” x 1 1/8” x 2 3/4” clear acrylic box with lid
  • 7/16” black ball & stick letter stickers
  • 1” wide black/white gingham ribbon flower with green satin ribbon leaves
  • 12” of 5/8” wide black/white gingham ribbon
  • medium point black paint pen
  • red candies

Instructions:

  1. Fill the box with candies and replace the lid. Draw four black dots on each side of the box bottom and lid sides with the black pen.
  2. Wrap the ribbon around the box bottom, pull the ends even above the lid and knot to secure. Trim the tails to 1”, then cut an inverted “v” into each end. Glue the ribbon flower centered on the knot. Use the letter stickers to personalize the box front as shown.
