Items you will need:
Any size box
Yarn
Hot glue gun
Scissors
Here is the items I used. The only things not pictured is the brown, cream and red yarn.
To start out I placed hot glue on the very bottom edge of the box. Then I laid the yard down on it. I did one side at a time, so my glue would not dry on me.
Once you get about two rows of gluing you can just start wrapping the yard around the box . When you come to the end of the color glue that last piece. I would do one solid line of glue. Then start your next color. As you can see I used the pattern blue, cream, brown, cream and blue.
At the end glue the last two rows.
We could just not have a plain colorful box, now could we? So I used some red yarn to added some lettering to it. The letters were so easy. I placed some glue at the top, middle and bottom of the cut pieces of yarn and shaped the letters.
My daughter loves her Barbie clothes box and has asked me to make a bigger box for more clothes and accessories.
