Instructions:

1. Tape the bottom of your box closed with packaging tape.
2. Cut the top and bottom flaps off, leaving the two sides flaps attached - these will be barn doors.
3. Paint or glue wood print scrapbook paper to the inside of your box.
4. Paint of cover the exterior of the box in wood paper. *Note if you use contact paper seal the edge with hot glue to secure.
5. *Advanced - hot glue Popsicle sticks to the exterior of the box for a 3D wood appearance - paint or leave natural.
