Papier Mache Round Medium Boxes - Pack of 6

The Papier Mache Round Medium Boxes - Pack of 6 are a versatile and durable craft resource, perfect for personalising and transforming into meaningful gifts or functional storage. Supplied plain and ready to decorate, these round boxes are made from sturdy papier mache, making them ideal for a wide variety of craft materials including paint, decoupage, sequins, glitter, stickers, and ribbons.

Children can decorate each box for Mother's Day, Father's Day, Christmas, birthdays, or other special occasions. The lid and base construction makes these ideal for use as gift boxes, jewellery holders, or containers for treats and trinkets. For best results, decorate with acrylic paint and strong PVA or craft glue, and finish with a thin layer of varnish to seal and preserve the design for years to come.

This project supports creative self-expression while providing a sense of achievement through hands-on learning and crafting. Children can personalise each box to reflect the recipient or the theme, helping build connection, storytelling, and thoughtfulness through art.
