DIY: Another beauty box makeover

If you also receive a monthly beauty box, then you might have wonder what to do with all those beautiful boxes! I first came up with the idea of glueing flowers on them (you can see that DIY here), but I already have many of those… and wanted to do something different. For this beauty box makeover you will need a box, a magazine, scissors, glue, masking tape, washi tape and something to close the box (I used velcro)

First I started breaking the cover part! I removed the sides of the cover, leaving only one there. That one I glued it to the box and to make sure that it wouldn’t move, I put some tape on it.

After making sure the box was opening and closing correctly, I started glueing different magazine pictures, making a collage with them.

Once I covered the whole box I added a closure. I used a small velcro circle, but you can use anything you want… even lace to make a bow!

And the last step of this super easy DIY project was covering the ugly parts and holding the papers together by using washi tape :) I picked a cute design by MT Masking Tape, you can find other designs here.

And this is the final result! I now use it to store the beauty things I use the most :)

Do you keep your beauty boxes? What do you do with them?

    Antes recibía Glossybox y tengo un montón de cajitas todavía pero lo único que hice fue poner fotografías bonitas de las revistas. La tuya quedó preciosa con las flores. Una buenísima idea. Bss, Ileana:)
