White Elephant Trash to Treasure

I'm sure that sometime during this Christmas season you have been to a White Elephant party. We have been to one and are going to another one this weekend. 75% of the time you go home with something you don't want. This summer at our family reunion we did a similar gift exchange and my hubby got this lovely box:


I didn't feel like we got the total short end of the stick because I felt like I could do something with it. So it got thrown in a box when we moved and as I was going through and organizing my craft stuff I came across it again and thought it would be a great gift box.



I Mod Podged wrapping paper around the bottom half and painted the lid white. I glued the ribbon onto the sides and top. To help with lining it all up I drew lightly on the sides with pencil and I'm so happy with how it turned out. 

For the huge flower from the top I can totally make that into a hairbow for PB. Bigger the bow, better the momma, right?!

Do you have any bad experiences with White Elephant? A couple weekends ago we went home with an ENEMA. I am not joking.
