To work we will need:
- scissors.
- empty box.
- textile.
- ribbons of different widths, blue shades and a little green.
- a garland of blue beads.
- needle with thread.
- “Moment” glue.
- corrugated paper.

Take a cardboard box


We take a cardboard box and carefully cover the entire outer surface with fabric using Moment glue. And give it time to dry.

In the meantime, let's start making flowers from ribbons. Take a blue ribbon 5 cm wide and 40 cm long.

Take the blue ribbon


Take and bend the corner 90 degrees and secure it with a needle.

We twist the folded corner along the length of the ribbon and secure it with a needle.

Curl the folded corner


Holding the bottom of the future flower, turn the ribbon up and immediately scroll the flower clockwise, securing each curl with a needle and thread.

turn the tape


How many turns we make, the flower will have so many petals.

Having made several petals, we fix the finished flower.

On the front side you get roses and green petals between them.

fasten the petals


We also attach petals to small roses, but with ribbons of a smaller width.

It's time for the garland


When all the flowers and leaves are secured, the green tails need to be carefully glued on the reverse side.

We place them on the lid of the box


It's time for the blue bead garland. We place them on the lid of the box and glue them with Moment glue.

But so that the inside of the box is also beautiful and neat, we cover the entire inner surface with yellow corrugated paper.

Casket


Thus, we close all the threads and ribbons on the lid. You can also use a mirror or flower to decorate the inside of the lid.

We place them on the lid of the box


To decorate the side walls we also use blue and green ribbons. We cut four green ribbons of 14 cm each and fasten them in the shape of a figure eight.

We make 4 very small flowers from a thin blue ribbon. On the front side we attach two green eights in the corners in a vertical position and glue a blue flower in the middle. And we glue the remaining two green blanks on both sides, but in a horizontal position.

At this point the box is ready. Good luck to all.
