DIY LIGHTED CHRISTMAS BOX

LOOKING TO SPRUCE UP YOUR OUTDOOR CHRISTMAS DECOR

This year I wanted to add a little extra to my outdoor Christmas decor, and decided to make a lighted Christmas box that was water and weather proof! You could still make this in time for the big day and new years celebrations, but I thought I would share how I made mine.

This one is a little more complex than some others, so I made a little how-to video which you will find embedded below.

For this project I used the following:

• An empty box just for the form, I removed this later
• Wire mesh, although chicken wire can also be used
• Plastic ties which I used to hold everything in place
• Scissors
• Plastic Straws to help support the structure
• Green shower curtain which I used as “wrapping paper”
• Needle and thread to sew the shower curtain to the wire
• Outdoor Christmas lights to place inside
• Waterproof red ribbon (I used a wedding ribbon that is normally used on cars)

I hope you found this helpful; did you also DIY any Christmas decor this year, I would love to see.
