The cute box started out looking like this:
A little Mod Podge and some scrapbook paper and a total transformation:
Here’s the breakdown:
Box - 50¢ at a local thrift
Mod Podge & scrapbook paper already on hand – free
Soaps – approx 50¢
Cute colored wash rag - 50¢ (came in a package of 8 for $4)
Nail polish kit – $1 in dollar section at Target
Pedicure kit – on clearance for 50¢ in dollar section at Target
Basket - $1 in dollar section at Target.
Grand total: $4 a piece (we made 6) and time and love. Not a bad price for something so cute I don’t think. My daughters friends seemed to love them. My only regret is that we put the paper clear to the top of the box, so when we put the lids back on some of the paper got squished. I guess you just live and learn.
We haven't participated in a linky party in a few weeks, so we are linking up to Finding Fabulous' Frugalicious Friday
