Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Boxes
• Plate for the base
• Wrapping paper
• Ribbon
• Glue gun
• Glue sticks

1. Gather the materials for the centerpiece. Determine how big you want the centerpiece to be, and choose an appropriately-sized plate for the base. Find small boxes to decorate. Use boxes you already have, buy them at a craft store or use foam or wooden blocks. Get enough wrapping paper to wrap every box. Use all one color, a pattern or multiple colors for an eye-catching centerpiece.
2. Wrap all of the boxes neatly with wrapping paper. Add ribbons and bows to the boxes, making each one look like a little gift.
3. Place some of the boxes on the plate, making a base on which to stack the remaining boxes. Keep in mind they will end up in a pyramid shape.
4. Glue the boxes to the plate. Use just enough glue to hold the boxes securely. You don't want glue showing around the edges of the box.
5. Stack the remaining boxes in layers, using fewer boxes for each layer. Glue them in place as you go.
6. Top the centerpiece with the last, or smallest, box. Add garland, fake snow or nothing at all around the bottom layer of boxes.
