I made a trip out to Des Moines a few weeks ago to visit an old friend. I wanted to send her a special thank you for being an amazing host. She just got a new apt and loves cupcakes. So I got her a few coffee mugs and a cupcake cookbook. But I wanted to do something a little extra so I went ahead and made her this personalized box to ship it in.
I started with a naked wood box from Michael's. I then painted the whole thing white. I used painters tape to get the lines perfect and filled them in with navy glossy acrylic paint. I then used a Martha Stewart stencil for the top and free handed the "J."
I hope she enjoys using it as much as I did making it!
I added a little personalization (too bad that Ralph Lauren guy beat me to RL)!
