What you'll need:
- Construction or card stock paper
- Scissors
- Tape or glue
- Box of some kind
TIP: Card stock paper is more sturdy, but I didn't have it at the time.
1) Take the box and build it, if it isn't already built.
2) Trace the size of the box onto black paper as shown in the picture.
3) Tape or glue the paper to the front part of the box.
4) Create a square that is about an inch longer on each end than the top of the box you chose.
5) Use something circular to draw the button on the cap.
6) Take a strip of whatever color tassel and make frayed ends by cutting them with scissors at different lengths about two inches up.
7) Tape the tassel underneath the button.
instead of a card then taped it with a little bit of tape and tie the diploma with a thin piece of paper. And wal-ah!
TIP: To make it a little more distinct, instead of putting 2014 on the boxes in different colors, you could put the school's logo or letters on it by printing it off the internet and cutting it out, but I did not have a color printer available.
I was able to find boxes that were the perfect size to put some tissue paper inside, a gift card, and the little diploma. Do you have any creative ideas that you have come up with for graduation? How many people do you have to make gifts for?
Thanks for keeping up!
