2012 Box!

Here it is, as promised:





The 2012 Box.


It may not look spectacular. And, true, I didn't do much DIY-ing; I bought a scrapbook box on sale at Michael's for $1.88. But I did affix a 2012 label in my own handwriting inside the label insert area of the box. DIY accomplished!

Really, this DIY is more about the IDEA than anything else. You can use an old shoebox and wrapping paper, a vintage jewelry box-- even a paper bag would work, really-- the idea is to have a place to store fun memories from the year. So far I've stored: movie tickets, my parking receipt for my first 2012 trip to the beach, cards friends and family have given me, pictures, journaling cards, and more. I even have a piece of driftwood from my second trip to the beach.




So for all you fellow lazy/busy DIY-ers, here's an easy one! And it's actually really fun to keep up with and go through every once in a while too :)
