Holly Jolly Christmas Box

What You Need:
  • Glue stick
  • Hot-glue gun and hotmelt adhesive
  • 6-inch-diameter box
  • Silver paint pen
  • Reynolds Ultra Foils (red and green)
  • 6-millimeter red plastic rhinestones
  • Scissors
  • Dry ballpoint pen
  • Red jingle bells (16- and 22-millimeter)
  • Red wire

Instructions:

Write Christmas song lyrics around the edge of the box lid with the paint pen. Using the glue stick, adhere ribbon or foil strips around the lid rim. Hot-glue rhinestones around the lid rim.

Trace the holly-leaf pattern below on the green foil twice, and cut out the shapes. Using the dry pen, make two holes 1/2 inch apart and 2 inches from the lid edge. Thread the bells on the red wire and anchor them to the box through the holes, twisting the wire ends together on the underside. Hot-glue the leaves under the bells.
