i was thnking the same thing- how do you do the monogram?????????????????
it will look really pretty- maybe you can buy script letters at michaels or something and just craft glue them on.
maybe even add some bling as a border-
o i cant wait to make my box.

where did you buy the actual different size boxes?

I saved mega $$$$ doing it myself...

I actually picked up the boxes from price club. They have a huge selection of boxes. A lot of the boxes do not have backs, so you have to make sure to pull the wrapping paper/fabric really tight.

The wrapping paper was from the dollar store.

The red roses were from the dollar store.

Ribbons and embellishments were purchased at Michaels, A.C. Moore, and Jo Annes Fabrics. I just bought a ton of ribbons I liked noing I was going to return a good portion of them =)

WOW! It came out great!! I have to agree with some of the other girls though with adding something to the middle white box. Just a little something is all you need.... LOVE IT!!!

Yup =) It was pretty tricky!!! Def. a 2 man job. But it's worth the time, effort, and energy!
