Creating a gift box for Valentine’s Day is a wonderful way to show your love and thoughtfulness. This project is easy to make and allows for personalization that will make the gift even more special.

Required Materials

2. Making the Walls of the Box
- Cut strips from the EVA foam sheet with approximate dimensions of 4 cm width and 10 cm length.

- Make as many rolls as you need for the size of your box, rolling half with the glitter side facing out and the other half with the opposite side.
- Attach the rolls along the edge of the heart. This will form the walls of the box.
3. Final Touches
- Cut thin strips from the EVA foam sheet and glue them along the edge of the base to cover the visible part of the cardboard.
