Below is a visual tutorial of how to make some cute gift box ornaments. Add a hanger and put them on the tree or give them as a gift. The recipient can reuse the box as an ornament or re-gift it. The roses are a circle cut in a spiral and then rolled into a flower. The foil is double sided so it makes beautiful flowers.
I hope you have enjoyed the blog post and got some inspiration here today.
Make sure to enjoy the small blessings along the way and,
Live Life with a Flourish!
