DIY Gift Box from Toilet Paper Tubes

This one says it all right here in the picture... easy gift box for the kids to make and fill with treats for a friend this Valentines Day!

 

Simply tuck in the ends of the toilet paper inner tube and they'll fold over themselves to make a secure little box.

Paint away or try a mini-decoupage project with our CrafTea Home Made Glue by covering the outside of the tube in glue and sticking on some wrapping paper or scrap book paper.

Tie with a ribbon if you like or decorate with some jewels or markers!

Most importantly.. don't forget to fill with an anonymous love note wrapped up into a mini scroll and fill with

  • Jelly beans 
  • Love heart sweets
  • that last Rolo 
  • Small craft supplies like a tube of glitter, beads and string, friendship bracelet threads etc. 
  • Small beauty supplies for girls like lipgloss, eyeshadow or a small perfume! 
  • Small treats for the dog or cat or pet in your life! 
  • Small stuff for the man in your life - again sweets, mini aftershave, or tickets to his favorite game! 
  • Home made vouchers - like the ones we put in our mini advent calendar such as a voucher to stay up late for the kids or voucher to go to a movie or a voucher for mum to put her feet up!
