DIY Fresh Flowers Gift Box
A unique way to gift wrap, the DIY Fresh Glower Gift Box is perfect for someone who loves flowers. And who doesn’t?!?
It’s like they always say, a gift is only as good as the box it comes in.
Okay, maybe that’s not completely true.
But a pretty box will always help!
These DIY Fresh Flower Gift boxes knock out three birds with one stone: flowers, handmade gift, and chocolates.
It’s definitely a creative gift wrapping idea from your usual generic gift wrap.
Side note: This is the first project we shot in the new studio.
It took a few minutes to get used to from having graduated from our living room coffee table.
But we’re loving it!

Florals of your choice
Gift box
Hot glue and glue gun

How to Make a DIY Fresh Flower Gift Box
This project is really as simple as gluing your favorite flowers to the top of a gift box.
1 — All you have to do is trim the stems down to just below the bulb and glue in place.
2 — For those of you that have a hard time seeing fresh flowers go without water, you can make them last by using floral tubes to create a mini bouquet.
This way you can also just glue the vase to the box instead of gluing the flowers straight on the box.
3 — To create the ombre look, we used spray paint in Ballet Slipper to quickly spray a few coats at the bottom, lifting up to the top of the box.
Then, allow the paint it dry.
