Hi everyone, on Friday I shared this pretty wooden box I decorated and personalised as a Christmas gift to my Nan.

I purchased the plain wooden box from The Works UK.

These boxes are inexpensive and make lovely gifts.

I covered it in white Acrylic paint and then measured sections and covered in the First Edition, Mariposa papers by Trimcraft.

Unscrew the lock and hinges before you paint it.

Mariposa papers. Shop here.

I decorated the top with my large Xcut doily die and personalised it with the word “Nan”

Shop the Doily die here.

The alphabet stickers are by American Crafts.

Check out my full tutorial below.

Look how happy my nan was to open her gift.

There is so much room in this box, and my Nan has already put it to good use.

I hope this project inspires you, it’s very easy to do and a nice way to update your craft room storage.

Happy Crafting

Sam
