Papier Mache Oval Boxes - Pack of 6

The Papier Mache Oval Boxes - Pack of 6 is a versatile, durable, and creative crafting resource perfect for a range of occasions and educational settings. Made from high-quality papier mache, these compact boxes are ideal for decorating with acrylic paint, glitter, sequins, ribbon, and other embellishments, offering children a meaningful way to create and give personalised gifts.

Children can decorate the oval boxes for Mother's Day, Father's Day, Easter, birthdays, or any special celebration. Once decorated, the boxes can be filled with treats, small gifts, messages, or keepsakes. Each box becomes a lasting memento of a child's creativity and effort, serving as a beautiful keepsake that can be cherished for years.

The smooth papier mache surface ensures paint adheres well, and multiple layers of quality acrylic paint can be applied for richer colours. For a longer-lasting finish, it's recommended to use a strong craft glue when attaching embellishments, ensuring the design remains intact over time.
