The other day in the forums we were discussing uses for plastic boxes that come from the grocery store with lettuce and such in them. I've been saving these lettuce boxes for a while now with the plan to alter them and that conversation prompted me to get with it!
This first box I've altered using our August Kit of the Month, Wistful Blues. Below is a step by step video tutorial on how I altered this box. Enjoy!

And one more, this one done with Graphic 45's By the Sea Collection.
I want to see what you can do with your plastic boxes. It really doesn't take long to do these and they are really pretty and unique ways to box your gifts.

Maggi, what a wonderful idea & you've carried it out so wonderfully with this gorgeous variety of boxed!!!!
Brilliant Maggi! So creative!
You get nicer "lettuce" boxes in the US than we do here in the UK !
Belos trabalhos!!
Fantastic!
Paula
Each and every one is totally awesome!
What a marvelous idea, Maggie. My husband is always bringing home salads and such in these boxes, now I know what to do with them. I never thought of this until now! Thanks for the inspiration!
Wow!!!! These are fantastic!!!
