Wedding Reception
DIY Cake Card Box

It was quite a bit of work, but i LOVED the final outcome.

I used Harris & David fruit boxes.
Covered them with white card stock.
Then glued the pink paper from Michael's on top.
Added some ribbon around it by gluing it with rubber cement
And finally glued with glue gun the artificial flowers around and on top of the box.
I took a picture of it inside and outside to show you how it changes colors with lighting.
I'm so happy about it :)

I really really like this. It is exactly what I want mine to look like. I'm not sure what Harris & David fruit boxes are though, I'm assuming just fruit boxes from like a grocery store? Also, what kind of pink paper is that, like scrap booking paper, wrapping paper, card stock? Where did you get the flowers from?

thank you for your comment heathermae!
the harris and david fruit boxes are some kind of fruit of the month deal you buy online, but don't worry about that , you can just go to the grocery store and see if they have products with good boxes that would fit your cardbox. i used regular scrap paper i bought at Michael's for 60 cents each. I bought the fake flowers at Michael's as well. I hope this helps and can't wait to see your final result!
