MY DIY Card Box

Love my DIY Card Box.
Wanted to share it.
I still need to add ribbon and some bling though out to give it a little sparkle.
So far, it has cost me under $30.

MY DIY Card Box

I used the following instructions:
http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/my-diy-cardbox-inspiration-vs-my-box-pic-heavy

My tips, let it dry and take your time.
Took me two days to do, but about 3-4 hours total.
Buy (3) 2oz bottles of paint (I needed to run out in the middle)
When cutting the box, don't do in it one step, scored the box and went over it 3-5 times.
Used round boxes 12' and 10' (10 was part of a three piece set).
Bought 1 yard of lace and have some left over.
Glue gets a little sticky on the inside, don't do after a fresh manicure.
Use coupons.
Feel free to ask any additional questions.
Good luck, it was easy.
