6 ways to decorate a Kikki K box



I really love the pull-out boxes that Kikki K products come in. The pull-out portions are usually in a contrasting colour from the box which make them fun to decorate using patterned papers. :) Here are 6 ways to decorate a Kikki K box... (yeah, I can't believe I've only bought 6 things from Kikki K either...lol..there must be some missing boxes! *winks*)

1. Go bold and bright!

This particular box has a bold blue pull-out drawer so I picked a bold geometric patterned paper as my base and added coordinating textural elements.

2. Add a decorative tag.

Sometimes it's fun to add a removable decorative tag. Like this one which features a heart-shaped bottle cap on a tag! :)

3. Try a muted colour palette with one bold colour.

Here the bold yellow really stands out against the muted colour palette.

4.  Play with textures.

Mixing up the textures create interest in a subtle colour palette.

5. Create a "scene" with your patterned paper.

Extend the design of your patterned paper by adding dimensional elements to it to create a "scene".

6. Keep it flat and postal-friendly.

Simple fussy-cutting makes for a relatively flat and postal-friendly box.
