Paint the outside of the box in the same colour as the lolly sticks.
Glue the lolly sticks to one side of the box.
Place the box lolly stick-side down and weigh it down so that it dries flat. Continue glueing in the same way on the other 3 sides.
Glue on the wooden figure and tie a ribbon around it in a bow.
Stick the googly eyes onto the figures.
