These are fun!

Here's what you need: Craft sticks (small and mini) Paint Glue Cardboard Template (@Jerrol's)

1. Lay your craft sticks on your template. Glue them together at the corners and layer them until you've reached the height you want. I did mine about 10 craft sticks high.

2. Trace the glued sticks onto a piece of card board and cut out.

3. Paint your glued sticks and your cardboard cutout. Let dry.

4. Glue your glued sticks to the cardboard to make a box.

5. These are great for valentine decorations or give it to your favorite someone!
