How to Make DIY Gift Boxes for Friends

December 16, 2017 Everyday Life

Welcome back blessed brilliant beauty! Today I am going to be sharing this DIY Spa Themed Gift Box I made for one of my good friends who recently graduated! Since the holidays are here, I thought I would share this gift giving idea!  I love gifting and always want my gifts be meaningful all the way down to the choice of wrapping paper! If you’re like me and enjoy putting your whole heart into gifting for the people you love, try giving your friends a personalized DIY gift box this giving season! If you want to see how I made this Spa Themed Gift Box keep reading!

The first thing I did was pick out a theme for my box. Since my friend was graduating, I couldn’t think of a better theme than one that involved some relaxation. After all, she deserved it! Once I choose a theme, I decided on four to six things that I wanted to put inside the box. My friend’s box consisted of mini Essie nail polishes, Shea Moisture facemasks, a journal, cute motivational pencils, a mug, and a candle! After that, I filled an empty box (if you don’t want to get a box from the store, you can try using a shoe box instead!) with shredded paper that matched the color scheme of the DIY gift box!

After this, I added all my items to the gift box! This was probably the most fun part! I even added a sweet note at the top of the box so when my friend opened the gift box, she would see the card! How cute right?!

Since this DIY gift box was made from regular cardboard, I decided to wrap it in this wrapping paper from Sugar Paper! I only wrapped the lid of the box and left the bottom half alone! I absolutely loved the way it looked once the wrapping paper was completed!

To finish it off, I placed a bow on top! This super easy DIY Spa Themed Gift Box is a wrap! Literally! I got all of these items (including the wrapping paper) from Target! They have a bunch of cute stocking stuffers that would be perfect for any DIY gift box!

If you blessed brilliant beauties are interested in making your gifts a bit more personal this season, try making your friends and family gift boxes with their favorite things this year! You won’t regret putting a smile on their face with the little things that make their heart warm! Absolutely loved being a cheerful giver this weekend! What would be inside your dream gift box from a friend? Mine would definitely have a Chanel clutch or the “Your Brokenness is Welcome Here” sweatshirt from SoulScripts!

The point is this: whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.  Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. -2 Corinthians 9:6-7
