I love acrylic things. I love monogram things. Today they meet and become best friends forever and ever.

While I was wandering the aisles of The Container Store for Crib Meets Craft I came across this acrylic hinged box and knew I could do something crafty with it. Fact: if you wander around long enough, you’ll find something. I am the queen of wandering.

This acrylic box is really easy to make and packs a punch. It’s a great holiday gift, which is exactly what I’m planning to do. After making one for myself, just to be sure that it worked, I’ve made three more for friends. The acrylic boxes are only $8.99 which makes this gift idea really affordable.

If you opt to recreate the project exactly, you’ll want to size everything to 5″ square. The top of the acrylic box measures 5.5″ square so keeping everything at 5″ will ensure that your monogram and patterned paper fits.

DIY Acrylic Monogram Box  | Damask LoveThe options for filling up this gift box are endless. Actually, I take that back. I sort of hate it when people tell you that the “options are endless” because in reality – the options almost always have an end. Like, you can’t put a horse in this gift box…or $100 worth of pennies…or a grandfather clock. Nope, those won’t work. Stationery, though? that’ll fit perfectly. Or candies. Or cookies. Those will all work.

I went with stationery. The same stationery from THIS post. Because it just coordinated so nicely.

  1. Highly recommend! I ordered personalized sympathy acknowledgment foldover cards after my father passed away. It was incredibly easy to customize and order from this seller, she made the process foolproof. The cards shipped and arrived earlier than promised, and the quality is exceptional. Thank you!
    Anyway, you should also try these different sim games for you.
