For many people, figuring out some good, simple candy boxes, you’ll definitely find a lot of the. But what if you want something simple? What if you don’t want to put too much effort into this? Well, you’re in luck, for here’s a recipe for some homemade candy boxes that isn’t super hard to put together, and there isn’t much that you need for them. You can fill them with your own personal chocolates, or homemade candy boxes, and they fit a nice and small array of materials.
What you’ll need are some decorative candy boxes from a store, whether it be a grocery or crafts store. You also want some decorative paper of choice, such as the colors that the receiver likes, or maybe holiday colors if you’re getting this for holidays, a pencil, some scissors or a means to cut, a glue stick, non-toxic acrylic paint, and a paint brush, which can help you with painting on the paint.
Now, the first thing that you will need to do is to prepare the candy box. You should remove the candies within a plastic container or candy box if you are using a pre-made candy box from the store. Once everything is removed, you can then paint everything with acrylic paint. Depending on the color, you’ll probably need a second coat of paint, and once the first layer is dry, you’ll want to double-check to see if you missed any spots. From there, for drying purposes, the inside should be painted as well if you find the color is a bit clashing, but that is not always necessary.
Now, to change out the lid, take the lid off and from there put it onto decorative paper, cut this out, and from there glue this to the top of the box. You can from there paint a design on the paper as well if you want to, add some stickers, or whatever you feel like you want to do. Some people do this with the bottom of the box as well, but that isn’t always necessary.
Now, once this is all dry, it’s time to put in the candies of your choice. You can put little truffle liners if you know that they need to be housed in paper, or if you just want to throw some candy in there, you can do so easily, and from there, you’re good to go.
These boxes are simple, yet incredibly effective with trying to give someone the present that they want. If you’re looking to really give someone something meaningful, remember that a candy box is something that you can give to them no matter what, and you’ll be able to, with everything at hand, really give it the flair that you want.
There is a lot that you can add to them, and you can customize them as needed. There is a lot that’s out there,e and a lot that you can do with them for others too.
