DIY Photo Gift Boxes
What You’ll Need:
- 1 Paper Mache’ or Wooden Box {I got mine at Michaels for $1.00}
- Mod Podge

- Photo
Mod Podge
Foam Brushes

Wood Gift Box with Lid
What You’ll Do:
- Trim your photo to fit the lid of the box.
- Brush a thin layer of Mod Podge on the top of the box lid, then carefully lay photo on top to set.
- Once Mod Podge has dried {approx. 20 minutes}, carefully brush a second layer of Mod Podge over the top of the photo. Brush carefully from left to right so all lines go in the same direction.
- Allow Mod Podge to dry completely, and you’ve got yourself a super-cute box… perfect for wrapping a gift in!
