Fun Gift Box

A fancy gift box for my friend's sweet 16

This took me longer to make than it should have. I started out just needing a case for the beaded-crown I made to give to my friend. I always keep the paper from gift bags and I had a bunch of it from Sephora. First I covered the entire box with the paper, then cut the rest of it into nickle sized strips and bunched em up! I used plain old Elmers glue and a paint brush to stick all of them on the box, except for a white space in the center of one side. For the cushion on the inside and the bow on top, I used plain felt and the blanket stitch. (link on how to) And to finish it off, gold glitter glue!
