Monogram Hat Box
This was Amanda's present. She has all sorts of little things in her room so I figured she could always do with another box. It could be used for jewelry or little odds and ends.
I used the same method as with my clipboards - tear the papers into large chunks and Mod Podge them to the box. Make sure there are no bubbles in the paper. I did that all around the box and the top of the lid then I sealed it all with another coat of Matte finish Mod Podge. I cut a strip of paper to fit the brim of the lid and circles of paper to fit the inside of the lid and the bottom of the box and I Mod Podged those pieces in the appropriate places.
Just to give it a little more character, I added a ribbon across the lid and a fun, colorful flower. I left the ribbon hanging over the box and attached a monogrammed card to it.
I have plans to make some of these for myself. It was a quick and easy project and it produces something useful.
