My girls love their accessories and Maisy (age 5) has been begging to make a jewelry box. To make these jewelry (or treasure) boxes we used:
- an old kid-sized shoe box
- several toilet paper tubes (we used 6)
- paint
- glue
Maisy and Mina (age 3) started by painting their boxes to their liking.
I love the portrait Maisy painted on the top of her box of me and the 3 girls.
While the paint dried, I took the paper tubes and cut them in half so they would fit into the box. Before glue was added to the tubes, I figured how many would fit into each box and arranged them the way we wanted them. We dipped one end of the tube into glue and attached it to the bottom of the box, then repeated for the rest of the paper tubes.
I love your girls' treasure boxes. Such a great idea to use paper tubes to separate the space into compartments.
ReplyDeleteFun! My girls would love to make one of these for all of their little treasures!
