Embellished Boxes ship by USPS. The entire box was wrapped in brown paper.
Inside was a brown box that was trimmed in wrapping paper.
First Look: Everything was wrapped up in paper.
Embellished included a supply list for everything in the box along with a description of Embellished.
There was a brochure in the box with a craft on each side. The first craft was D.I.Y Cocktail Umbrella Lanterns. You use cocktail umbrella's cut them down and glue them around a lantern.
Embellished included two lanterns and several umbrellas.
Embellished gave specific instructions on how to do each craft.
This was a really fun project to make. You did need some Modge Podge or other glue solution to clue the umbrellas to the lantern. This was really easy and fun.
The second craft is a D.I.Y Fairy Jar.
As usual, Embellished included directions to complete the craft.
There were three glow sticks, two jars, a brush and glitter.
Note: I didn't get a chance to do this project, as one of my children grabbed and activated one of the glow sticks, before I could do the project. I am going to get another glow stick and complete the project.
Final Thought: I really enjoyed this box and I love my lantern. I have enough materials for a second lantern, but I am waiting a bit. The fairy jars look really fun. I am going to do both of them for my boys to have, before they go to bed. They would make a cute night light. I do with the kit came with modge podge, but that is the only thing this kit was missing.
