HEART SHAPED BOX

Send

Is Valentine's Day on the nose or an important date for your relationship? And you do not know what to give to your loved one. You can make a romantic gift with your own hands. For example, make a heart-shaped box, inside of which there will be 50 (or another number) reasons why you love your soul mate.

To do this, you need a tight Whatman paper, scissors, PVA glue, a pen, a bright cloth (or colored paper) and various decorations, glue moment.
For a heart-shaped box, we cut out two hearts. One heart should be slightly larger than the second (so that the cap fits easily). You will also need two narrow strips of Whatman paper (this will be the side wall of the lid) and two strips slightly wider (side side of the base of the box). At the edges of the strips, we cut out the teeth so that they stick better.

Then we apply glue along the edge of the heart, take a strip and glue it by bending it along the line of the heart. We also act with another strip.
We do the second part of the box in the same way.
It's okay if in some places it turned out not exactly, all the flaws will hide the jewelry.
Then we take the heart template (which was used for the cover), apply it to the fabric and draw around the contour.
Cut the fabric, leaving allowances on all sides of 5-7 millimeters. We lay the heart of cardboard on the fabric, bend the edges of the fabric and glue the moment to the glue.
Now we glue the resulting pink heart to the lid of our box. To decorate the edges of the box, you can glue lace (or ribbon) along the contour.
To close the defects inside the base of the box, cut out the heart from paper and glue it inside. Top can be decorated with a lace napkin.

To decorate the top of the cover, flowers and lace are suitable. And the irregular edges of the heart can be hidden with a ribbon of sparkles. As a result, you will get a smartly decorated box. But you still need to do the content. Inside the box there will be folded small pieces of paper on which the reasons will be written, for which you love your soul mate. You can cut the paper into pieces and write the reasons by hand, or you can type all the reason on a computer and print it on a printer. We turn each piece of paper into a tube and tie it with a ribbon or thread. We put the finished pieces of paper in a box and the gift is ready. Your loved one will love this gift.
