Crafty Brides: Need your ideas and input!!

I have plain white gable boxes. They will hold my favors. So, using your imagination, how would you decorate the box?

Re: Crafty Brides: Need your ideas and input!!

I would do them very simply. A simple flower or ribbon attached sounds great

You could get rubber stamps and different colored inks to decorate them.

Re: Crafty Brides: Need your ideas and input!!

Hmmmm... tie a ribbon on it to match your color theme... then get some fake flowers that match from Michaels or something... make sure they have semi-long stems... and stick a flower through the loop of the bow on the ribbon for each box.

That is what I was going to suggest.

I did that with a couple of the gifts I am giving to people participating in the wedding.

Re: Crafty Brides: Need your ideas and input!!

My suggestion would be to get some double sided satin ribbon - the thick kind in a color that matches your theme and run it all around the box tying at the handles. Then I would put a larger sized label mounted on cardstock to the front over one side of the ribbon (to represent the front). Tie the bow on top and whalla.

ETA: I would highly recommend the 2 1/4' wide satin ribbon for that silky rich effect.
