Christmas Countdown Box…or is it?

This is the Christmas Countdown box kit, a returning favorite from last year’s Christmas catalog. The box is premade and sturdy, as are the cute little boxes inside. It comes with all the supplies needed to decorate as shown above here. BUT…wait there’s more! In the catalog it hints that you can decorate this as a storage piece to go with your decor, as birthday packaging or as a different holiday countdown. There is truly no limit to what you can do with this box, but sometimes it’s hard to come up with the ideas. So I’ve searched and brainstormed and I’ve come up with over 30 other ideas of how to use the box, how to decorate and what you could put inside.

“That’s great, but I can only choose one of the ideas.” NOT TRUE! You could actually do nearly ALL of the ideas with this trick:

Velcro dots!

What a great idea, right?! I didn’t come up with it, but I did scour the internet for lots more great ideas and brainstormed for a while on what else you could do with it. So as a ‘thank you’ for ordering the kit from me I will email you my idea list with over 30 ideas of how to use, decorate and fill this box including some printables! Which idea will you use first?

*A note about this kit: As I mentioned this is a returning favorite from last year. Last year there was an optional stamp set available to decorate the front. The directions in the kit are the same, suggesting you decorate with the stamp set, which is no longer available.

BUT I’ve decorated this kit using JUST the contents of the kit. Panels 2 and 4 are the ones that I modified with extra kit pieces instead of using stamps and the others I just followed the directions. I think they turned out cute!
