This DIY Prize Ribbon Gift Box is a fun and special way to show mom just how much you appreciate her this Mother's Day! And while things might be a little different in quarantine this year, there's really nothing that can take away the sentiment of a handmade gift. Using RABOM's ribbons and lace felt, I was able to put this box together in almost no time. The lace felt is definitely my favorite addition to this project and you can find it in the prettiest assortment of colors over on the RABOM website. Plus, it cuts nicely which is GREAT considering felt can often be tricky to cut smooth.

How To
Step 1) Paint your box a pinkish coral color and let it dry completely.

Step 2) Cut small strips of white and coral ribbon and glue them onto the lid of your box so that it looks like a prize ribbon. I alternated white and coral and created little loops out of the ribbons as I glued them. When you finish that, cut a circle out of white cardstock to fit in the center of your box and add black stickers that spell out #1 MOM.
