So ladies I have tapped into my crafty side once again after finding a super deal yesterday on paper Mache boxes I now want to DIY my card box. I have a vague idea of what I want to do but I have no real clue on how to do it. Does anyone have any instructions or pointers for me? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

    That one is very nice.  I did mine all in ribbon.  I am not good at painting.  Just keep an open mind and you will be just fine.

    I did my own card box and it was easier than I thought. And about tying the bow....go to walmart on the ribbon aisle and buy this lil gadget called a bowdabra (they have a website too). It has been the single best thing I have bought to help me with my decorations and it only cost 12 bucks. If you need directions on the card box thing let me know!

    I was hoping to make my card holder box as well. Where did you find the paper mache boxes?
