Basketball Valentine’s Box
Transform a shoe box into a basketball-inspired Valentine’s box. Paint the box orange (or cover it with orange paper) and draw black lines with a marker to resemble a basketball. Add a mini hoop using a plastic lid and string to complete the sporty look.
Vanity Box
Create a glamorous vanity box using cereal boxes, pink paper, and silver foil. Tape two cereal boxes together, cover them with pink paper, and add black lines for drawer details. Use silver paper for the mirror and decorate with glitter, pom-poms, or stickers.
Heart Cactus Box
Make a Heart Cactus Valentine’s box by wrapping a box in green paper. Draw cactus details and add pink paper hearts as accents for a cute and quirky design.
Cat Valentine’s Box
Turn a box into an adorable feline. Cover it with faux fur and use foam or scrapbook paper to craft the cat’s face. Add details like whiskers and ears for extra charm.
Unicorn Valentine’s Box
Unicorns never go out of style! Cover a cardboard box with white cardstock and use glitter paper for the horn and details. Don’t forget to add colorful paper flowers and a slit at the top for cards.
