If you buy a ready-made box, then it will be decorated in advance with patterns and drawings, and if you build the packaging yourself, then you will have to work hard. So, to create a Christmas box, you will need:

• base box - it can be a box for shoes, household appliances, etc. (it is desirable that it has a lid);
• wrapping paper with a New Year's pattern or foil;

First you need to measure and cut off the required amount of paper, which should subsequently be pasted over the box itself. Moreover, it is desirable to do this both from the inside and outside. If you used liquid glue or tape for pasting, then you definitely need to leave the finished structure for a while to allow it to dry well.

After that, proceed with the direct procedure for decorating the box. So, on the outer part of the lid, you can stick a decorative bow or attach several spruce branches and cones - this can be done using glue, tape or decorative strings.

Watch out for that so that all decorations are correctly combined and do not get out of the general color palette. The perfect New Year's combination: green, red, gold, silver, white. With the help of New Year's tinsel on the outside of the lid, you can also lay out images of a Christmas tree or snowflake. You can also use decorative decals or stickers.

The interior of the box also requires attention.Before putting a gift in it, put in some tinsel, scatter confetti, or decorate the bottom of the box with foil. Place the gift on top. remember, that decoration and gift wrapping play no less role than the choice of the present itself.
