How to make

Step 1

Start by painting the box all over (inside and out) then set aside to dry.

Top Tip: Depending on the paint you use, you may need to give the box a second coat of paint for a nice solid finish.

Step 2

Tie a length of twine around the box and secure on top of the lid with a bow.

Arrange the Christmas stickers in a cluster using 3D foam pads for added height.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Terrible features I think this is so poor as the paint wouldn't dry properly which means this is a bad product
