Life Is Like A Box Of Chocolates...

Sorry, couldn't resist such a catchy blog post title opportunity.

Last week, I was going through link parties and found the cutest ring holder made out of a cigar box that Ali from Found in the "Ali" shared. She even had a tutorial on how to make it, which was awesome and so easy to follow. 

Of course, I wanted to copy her genius, but I didn't have a cigar box. But I did have a chocolate box... 


So I took my chocolate box, some foam, fabric and hot glue and made this...

Awesome, right?

The best part is that I had all the supplies already (thank you Mom for all the random craft supplies you send my way), so this project was FREE! I don't know about you, but I love free.




I'm sharing this post at the following link parties:

  1. Free IS good. And this is extremely cute.

    At first, I was thinking "box of chocolate?! No way she can make a box of chocolate more awesome than its original purpose" ...

    Rings. The only thing better than chocolate.

  6. That's a great idea! You could even paper the outside to make it look different if you get bored of the chocolate box look. :)

  7. Hi Bethany - visiting from the hop and am your Newest Follower!

    Nice to meet you - great idea for the ring box - and good idea to use a candy box-we all can get one of those! I might decoupage mine! Thanks so much for such a great, economical way to store rings (and other jewelry!)

    Best Wishes!
