DIY Ruffle Cake Valentines Box



Need a place to store your special Valentines? Let's make a ruffle cake Valentines box, shall we?

Materials:
crepe paper
glue stick
round gift box or hat box (found mine at Michaels)
white paper
scissors


Directions:

Step 1: Line box with white paper 
Step 2: Use a pencil to trace a line around the box showing where the lid meets the box. 
Step 3: Add a row of glue stick to the box. To create the ruffle, press crepe paper into the glue every 1.5 inches or so, this will create a pleat. Continue to pleat until you reach your pencil line indicating where to stop. 



Fill the box with Valentines!
