Instructions
1 Measure the part of the lunchbox you want to decorate. This can include the front, back and sides, but it's really up to you! You can decorate one side and paint the rest, or add a simple border with the original color peeking through.
2 Cut paper according to your measurements This can be a big block, or several strips (leave room so you can averlap). We used several scrapbook papers from one school-themed collection (it comes with matching embellishments too!).
3 Trim the excess paper. Since this lunchbox had rounded edges, we trimmed the excess with a corner punch for a more uniform shape. You can also use scissors.
4 Glue. apply with a brush (spreads more evenly) on the lunchbox, and then align the paper on one side. Press down with your hand, ironing out the bubbles. Tip: Choose paper that's thick enough to handle a lot of glue without warping or discoloring.
5 Embellish. In this box, Usually one side has a solid color, and the other has a coordinated pattern which you can cut out and turn into embellishment." Most scrapbook lines also have coordinating stickers, ribbons,paper flowers. Use a strong glue, or attach with brads to the paper before ou stick.
6 Finish. you can paint a thin layer of decoupage glue for a glossy finish (it also halps stick everything down, some stickers tend to peel off!). We also tied different coordinating ribbons around the handle.
