Transform Old Calenders and Containers into Repurposed Decoupage Gift Boxes!
Yes, these delightfully adorable homemade gifts cost only pennies to
make! I upcycled an old cocoa tin and a plastic eclair container and
transformed them into repurposed decoupage gift boxes ready for an
endless variety of little treasures to place inside...For these Mother's
Day gifts, I am going for chocolates for my favorite seasoned motherly
matron and baby girl clothes for my dearest friend and new mother to a
precious baby girl...I'm not naming names, but you know who you are! All
I did was use my favorite trusty decoupage craft medium "Mod Podge" and I cut out some beautiful images from a darling old calender with artwork from Barbara Ann Kenney that I received from my sweet and thoughtful mother-in-law Beverly (Etsy shop owner of Maddie's Trinkets and Bobbles).
The completed products remind me of cottage chic lovelies that I would
expect to find in a quaint little local mom & pop brick and mortar
boutique filled with feminine frills and delicious sweets!
