Colorful Mother’s Day DIY Jewelry Box

Jewelry· Mother's Day· Wood

Mother’s Day is fast approaching and you can make this colorful Mother’s Day DIY jewelry box with quilling strips.  Mom will love this handmade box to store her jewelry.  Plus it is really easy to make since the strips are pre-cut.

Colorful-mothers-day-diy-jewelry-box-Crafts-Unleashed-1Supplies needed to make your own colorful Mother’s Day DIY jewelry box:supply-list

  • Hinged Wood Box
  • Brown Craft Paint
  • White Craft Paint
  • Super Gloss Mod Podge
  • 3/8″ Quilling Strips (NOTE: quilling strips are just pre-cut paper strips in fixed widths)
  • Scissors
  • Paint Brush

Colorful-mothers-day-diy-jewelry-box-Crafts-Unleashed-3Start by painting the box brown inside and out.

Colorful-mothers-day-diy-jewelry-box-Crafts-Unleashed-4Once the paint is completely dry and cured, start adding the quilling strips with the Mod Podge.  I started on one side and left the excess to hang off.  Come back with scissors and trim.

Colorful-mothers-day-diy-jewelry-box-Crafts-Unleashed-5On the top, I drew a pencil line down the center and added two different color strips on either side.  Again, begin by placing them with the Mod Podge and letting the excess hang off.  Trim with scissors after the strips are placed.

Colorful-mothers-day-diy-jewelry-box-Crafts-Unleashed-5Once you have covered your entire box, allow the Mod Podge to dry completely.  Then come in with some white craft paint and an extremely dry brush (it should just barely have any paint on it).  Run that dry brush across the strips.  The picture below has been brushed on the left and not on the right.

Colorful-mothers-day-diy-jewelry-box-Crafts-Unleashed-6Allow that to dry completely then come back with 2 – 3 costs of super gloss Mod Podge over the entire surface.  Allow to dry completely in between coats.  This should make sure all of the small strips are secured down and protected.

Colorful-mothers-day-diy-jewelry-box-Crafts-Unleashed-2Mom will love this fun and colorful DIY jewelry box.  I was inspired by this tara multicolor box from Pottery Barn just in case you wondered how this idea came to be.

pbGrab your quilling strips and get started on this fun DIY jewelry box project for Mother’s Day today.

    This is awesome! I tried my hand at quilling and failed horribly, now I have something to try with those paper strips.
