Dressing Up A Simple Wooden Box
10:07 AMMany months ago while shopping at Home Goods I spied a few of the little creamy white painted bamboo boxes below. They are kitchen utensil holders, but I thought they would make fun little storage boxes in our office. They were also on clearance for a few dollars each so why not bring them home.
I wanted to dress them up a little since they are super simple.
Inspiration found me at the craft store. Have you spotted the glitter label holders. They sell them in many shapes and glitter colors. All I did was attach them to the boxes with Elmer's glue, and let the glue dry overnight. One of the glitter holders had a little more curve to it so I just bent it a little, and sat it under some really heavy books for a few days. The weight did the trick and helped flatten it out.
The holder helps the boxes look a little more office - and the bling is a little fun. I think the holders would also be nice attached to a picture frame - below the subject. I don't even think you need to add a word label. They are pretty nice on their own. Our office shelves are in a pretty dark spot so sorry for the bad quality photos.
Hope you like this very simple idea.
