Monogrammed Box


Here's my next contribution for ways to use Decor Elements... I had purchased the white Ee and used the lowercase e on a picture frame -- I'm sure many of you have seen it on my stamping ledge. Well, I had the capital laying around just begging to be used so once again, with ruler in hand, I found a plain, ugly box at the craft store that I thought would do the trick. A little bit of designer paper applied with modgepodge and just about 30 minutes of my time was all that this project required (and most of that was spent letting things dry). The finishing touch was putting my E to good use. Do I let Emma use her monogrammed box? Are you kidding me? Of course not! But someday I'll entrust her to take care of it well enough that I'll hand it over. Now I have to go buy another box because Benjamin is asking where his B box is =)

  1. Great job on the corners...that is where I seem to have trouble. Yours are so smooth, Dawn. Any tricks?

  2. Some well-placed cuts and a lot of measuring seemed to be the key. I will say that of all the boxes I've covered, this one turned out the best. Perhaps it was because the box was quite large? Or more than likely, I just got lucky!
