This is the gift box I made for the rooster box I made my MIL.
This is the box I made for two different hanging hooks I made for my MIL. (You can see them here and here).
This is the only box I had left from last year. I put a milk glass vase that I bought for my MIL in it.
This box doesn't have a gift yet but it is just the right size for a gift card.
The boxes are all recycled, one was a doll's stroller box, one was an American Girl accessory box, one was a shoe box, and one was a jewelry box. I'm still stash busting so all the decorations are from my stash.
I am sharing at:
Oh that is fancy! Way to use up all those left over decorations.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Pooh bear one. Good ol' Pooh.
ReplyDeleteFun idea! I love the little Winnie the Pooh box!
ReplyDeleteVery creative my friend...I bag everything not that there is much to bag at all. We gift very little here with our big college girl and all. ♥O
ReplyDeleteall lovelies Melissa, and perfect for gifts. i like the pictures and laces and cord you've chosen to embellish them with. and I think our stashes must be related, they seem to be unlimited!
ReplyDeleteI love that you recycle these boxes and turn them into pretty gift boxes! Great idea!
ReplyDeleteThese boxes are beautiful! You are the most creative and stylish "re-purposer" I have ever seen.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Natasha.
Your giftboxes are as much a gift as what you put inside. Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteHad to laugh at the putzy remark. We call my sister the queen of putzing around.
ReplyDeleteCute boxes. So much nicer than wrapping paper!
Lovely. It's like getting two gifts in one!
ReplyDeletethose are all so cute, they look "boutique" quality, where you'll only find them in expensive boutiques, very cute.
ReplyDeleteWow really? You do all of that instead of wrapping? I'd love just the box without a gift inside. How nice. :) Lisa~
ReplyDeleteWow, those are pretty impressive. I bet they look AWESOME under the tree!
ReplyDeleteYou are like me is more ways then one!! Making things more difficult then they need to be but it always makes it so much better!! Great gift boxes!! They are better then gift wrap anyday!
ReplyDeleteI am in LOVE with the Pooh one! These are so cool. I've always wanted to get some ideas for better gift wrapping and you hit the nail on the head!!! Thanks for the inspiration (yet again, oh so talented one!!!)
