Instructions:

Decorate the box on the outside and inside with the pattern paper. Adhere the piece for the lid (inside) onto the kraft chipboard but do not glue this to the lid yet.

Cut a small box from the pattern paper with a small box shape cutting die and adhere the tabs with double sided tape. This will be used to hold the switch of the LED lights.

Create a shaker frame. Cut out a frame from the collection. Trace the shape of the frame onto the kraft chipboard and cut it out. Adhere a piece of acetate behind each frame. Add some glitter and close up.

Trace a rectangle shape (9 cm x 11 cm) on the inside of the lid and cut it out with a craft knife.

Create the ‘cover’ for the LED lights. I used a cutting die with circles. I cut three pieces, one from watercolor paper, pattern paper and acetate. Adhere the acetate piece behind the watercolor piece and then randomly glue some of the circles from the pattern paper one onto the acetate.

Adhere the ‘cover’ to the frame on the inside of the lid.

Then adhere the shaker frame on top.

Place your LED light on the ‘cover’ section. I used some sellotape to make sure the light is secure.

Adhere the small box next to the ‘cover’ and glue the switch to this box.

Make a small hole on the lining (this is the piece that is glued to the kraft chipboard in step 1) for the button of the switch before adhering it to the lid.
