Oh the humble box. You might think you are tired of boxes by this time of year. You have been wrapping them to put under the tree, you have been packing up holiday décor in them, and you have probably had them land on your porch for weeks just to open them and re-box the contents inside to put under the tree. Now that the holidays are over, let’s re-examine the box and its many possibilities. The New Year means new gift giving opportunities. Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and these upcycled boxes are a quick and easy way to personalize a gift. You are probably finding yourself with more stuff in your life post-holidays so why not create stylish storage boxes to contain the clutter. All of those cardboard boxes that seemed to multiply every week, well the possibilities are pretty much unlimited with what you can make with those!
