DIY Unicorn & Dinosaur Valentine Box (with Free Templates)

Every year my kids get to create a DIY Valentine’s Day box for their class party. This year’s ideas included a unicorn valentine box for my daughter and a dinosaur valentine box for my son.

Today I decided to share these valentine box ideas with you and provide free templates!

Supplies

– A blank Valentine’s Day box – Cardstock – Glue sticks  – Wrapping paper  – Masking tape – Embellishments (unicorn eyes, ears, horn and dinosaur tails, spots, and eyes)

For the unicorn box: To make the unicorn's horn, take a square piece of paper and roll it into a cone. Glue the cone together with hot glue so it dries quickly.  I used gold glitter card stock.

Instructions

Using the straight edge and a pencil, mark out a thin rectangular slot on the box for valentine envelopes and cards. Cut out the slot using your Exacto knife.

Turn the box lid over once the slot is cut out and wrap it using the wrapping paper. I am using white for the unicorn, but you can use any color you choose.

Use the Exacto knife to cut the extra wrapping paper from the slot so the slot remains open. Fold the excess wrapping paper under the slot and make sure everything is smooth.
