Wedding Card box help!!!!

Okay, so I made the decison to make one myself! I know I can bang it out in one weekand and my mom is gonna help me. I went to get the boxes today. 3 Square ones...All three boxes were $10 and then I bought some pearls and ribbon..I may do lace too!

My question is I need to wrap these boxes but I don't know with what! All these boxes have a floral design on them so they need to be wrapped! Should I use wrapping paper? What did you all use??

I'm not making a card box, but I've seen a lot of photos from others who have made theirs...some use fabric instead of wrapping paper.

I used white wrapping paper first, because the boxes were printed. Then, I put white sating fabric over it.

How did you get the fabric to stay on the boxes? Was it hard? Do you have instructions you can send me??
