Re: DIY Cardbox Finished!!! With PICS

THANKS ALL!!! It took awhile to learn to use the spray glue without breathing it in and gluing my nostrils together...

but I am happy with it!!! I had fallen in LOVE with the Modern bride ones but couldn't afford them... so i came up with this... Of course my cell phone takes sucky pics!!! After the wedding I am sure i will have better ones.... the colors on it are much more vibrant then these pics show.

Boxes were Bottom- copy paper box from staples - Middle - was a box a gift came in (had it in the basement) Top was just a box something was shipped in. Spray glue I used to put the fabric on all 3 boxes, you just spray the box and stretch the fabric over it (one side at a time), if you make a mistake you can pull it up to pull out wrinkles and the glue still sticks. The ribbons were left overs from the invitations programs and favors. Rhinestone buckle (left over from invitations). The flowers were left over from the centerpieces and BoK (we are doing silk flowers due to FH's allergies). All in all it was easy to make I could bust one out now in 2 days. The whole project only cost me $30 actually a few cents less.
