I am joining Ann, from Apple Street Cottage, and the Do It Over Designers, where we transform something that needs a makeover!
First and foremost, these were delish! A refreshing afternoon cocktail with a few bites of cheese and crackers!
Secondly, the cardboard holder was something I could easily imagine using as a gift container. I had a friend's birthday approaching and had an IDEA!
I purchased a felt sheet for $.20 at Hobby Lobby and covered the box, using a glue gun:
I purchased 4 Bath and Body products in the Japanese Cherry Blossom scent:
I added some black tissue paper to each compartment and filled each with one of the products:
A polka dotted bow was added to the side and the gift was ready to be delivered!
Hop around to see what my clever blogging friends created:

Well, that is the sweetest gift box I've ever seen. What a genius idea! I have to remember this one around the holidays, I always have little items for my girls that would fit perfectly inside a beverage box. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat's a gift anyone would love to receive, Patti. I see those containers all the time...now I have to remember to save them since the holidays are just around the corner!
ReplyDeleteI always love stopping by to see your fabulous creations and this gift box is no exception, Patti! It looks adorable and quite unique! What a terrific idea to upcycle a cardboard holder!
ReplyDeleteThat's a win-win for everyone! You got a delicious drink and your friend got a fabulous gift box! I've never seen plaid felt in these parts; it really amps up the style and so perfect for Fall!
ReplyDeleteNow that's a great idea, I would love to receive something like this from a friend!
ReplyDeleteThis is the perfect idea for gift giving Patti! I love being able to use items I already have on hand and preventing them from accumulating in a landfill somewhere. I cannot wait to try something like this! I am sure your friend was over the moon!
ReplyDeleteYour gift box turned out super cute Patti! I love the felt you used, and the bow is a lovely finishing touch.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely gift, sometimes a box is just too good to throw away and it just needs to be transformed and given a new life. Anyone would be delighted to receive this.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome idea! Your upcycled box decorated for packaging makes a wonderful gift presentation. Love it!
