Gift Box Christmas Ornaments
Save your little boxes! You can use an empty baking soda box, food
coloring box, a box from a bar of soap etc. Have the kids wrap your
little boxes in their favorite wrapping paper and attach a string and
use it as an ornament. Or, attach your string and then thread them
through a piece of jute and use it as garland. So many different things
to do with it.
