DIY Chinese Take-Out Boxes..
For The Candy Buffet

Other DIY project was checked off the list when my MOH and I worked our butts off putting these together.

We used the plain boxes then put the damask packing tape on them..cut off the excess tape..used a ribbon and personlized hang tags!!

These took forever to put together but I think they turned out a lot better than we were both expecting!!

So here they are!! =)

Hey Brit!! Can't believe my wedding is in 3 days!!

these look great - but what the heck are you going to do with yourself once all of your projects and done and you are married??? (I worry about this myself - but I think you like home decorating and such too.)

Oh - and my black and white maggie dress sold.....:(

Congrats Debi..
Glad you were able to sell the dress! Haha..I def. didn't need 3 dresses for 1 day! 2 is enough! =)

I have no idea what I'm going to do with myself after planning this wedding..maybe be a normal person again!! Haha

They look really nice.  How many rolls of tape did you buy to make all those boxes?  Thanks

75 16oz (1 Pint) Take-Out boxes took only 1 roll of packing tape..and that included messing up on a few..so you could probably get around 80 out of each roll of tape!

Wish I would have known that before ordering 5 rolls of tape! =)
