Re: xpost: cardbox question

here is a pic of the first one I made for our engagement party, but I will not be using because I changed the color scheme for my engagement party!

I just wrapped it in wrapping paper, added a few bows and stickers. oh and made the cut for the cards!

It's pretty easy.. Michaels arts&crafts is my best friend!

Good luck!

I have in no way attempted this yet, but I plan to go to JoAnn fabrics, buy fabric and 'wrap' them . . . but in a pretty way LOL. I'm looking for suggestions on what kind of fabric to get and how exactly to do this. I'm thinking glue or double sided tape would be needed. Also fancy ribbon, crystals, maybe flowers? I'm looking at pics for inspiration and will go from there. I guess I'm pretty much in the same boat as you are. Thanks for the post office box tip though!
