I love to hear from my friends! I will always send you some Friend Mail in return!
I have a great idea for this box for those that can’t find the lighted tree.
What you do is purchase 2 of the tree pictures you are using for this. Glue one to the back of the box, then cut out the tree image from the second one and glue it on to a stiff piece of cardboard and cut around the tree image again. Then glue pieces or cork, foam, cardboard, etc.. to the back of the image. Anything that will make the tree stand out from the background image and will allow you to hide the light string under. Then poke holes in the tree pic where you would put lights on a tree. Then poke them through (but not all the way) only enough to see some light. Tape or glue the cords to the back of the tree and/or background to hide them. Then glue or tape your tree 🌲 to the background right over the background tree or even a little off to the side to make it look like several trees.
You can also add tiny ornaments to the tree and background to give the whole box that three dimensional look. It really turn out GREAT!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE! ⛄️🦌🎅🏻🤶🏻
This is the absolute cutest idea! Thank you for sharing.
I LOVE this shadow box - beautiful! Thank you! ❤️
I just love the shadow box and everything else you make. You are so creative and so talented. I have made so many of your crafts and here is another one I definitely have to make.⭐💖
OK, now I'm obsessed. Just finished the 10th one. I used mostly Christmas cards as the back grounds so there is a scene in back. One is children looking in toy store window on the back wall then I "fussy cut" (if you quilt you know the words) more children and put them closer to the front of the box so it is 3D. I cut a tree in half and put on the side - decorated with a glitter that makes it look like Christmas balls. Wish I could post a picture, really cute.
⭐Wow girl!⭐ WOW! I just wish my Dollar Tree had these items.
That's way too cute. Going to make a few with my grandkids to give to their parents. Thank you. 😊
Such a clever idea for Christmas. I love having the lights down low and then the pretty colorful lights fill the room with the joy of Christmas.
Thank you so much! I like dimming the lights too. :)

Me too lady! Happy holidays!
Great craft idea!!! I see many being made in my future!!! All with different themes!!! Easter, Halloween, Christian themed, etc... Your genius has sparked the flame of my imagination!!! Thank you!!!
So simple and cute, my head is spinning with ideas. I have a few extra light sets. And alot of miniture ornaments and things to place in there. They could be themed, like Nutcracker suite, Disney, Fairies, Santa n Elves, Christmas time Disney princesses. Or trucks n road equipment for boys, Santas workshop at the North Pole. Thank you much. I subscribed very recently.
Love the way the shadow box turned out.. awesome idea.

Looks so much more than dollar store stuff.. So many variations you can make from this!

You always have paint on your hands!!! It lets us know you are always working on something new to inspire us with!!
So cute! I did make the duster wreath. I put pink boas on it, and those silver disco ball tree ornaments on it. Ooh,and some of the pink butterflies from DT too. All items from the DT. It's very glam,my aesthetic. So,thanks for dat info. I'm a Southern girl,too. Greenville, S.C.,holla!!
Love it. Just adorable, I love snowmen. I've done my home in snowmen for years. Thanks for sharing your talent. You have a blessed day.
My granddaughter and I made these this morning. We love them! She's only 10 and this was super easy, so she was able to do her own. I just worked the glue gun. She is very proud of it! Thanks for the idea.
You’re very welcome!
Its nice to hear grands having a grandma who will craft with them. I would love to see her shadow box somehow. Tell her i said great job
What a cute idea! Can't wait to try this. It would look cute and cozy on a shelf, a mantle or on a night stand. What a wonderful craft for the Holidays or beyond! Thanks for sharing.
Adorable! I will definitely try it. Thanks for sharing.
I made one similar to this for a gift and they LOVED it. Thank you for the video
This is adorable! How fun! I bet your kids love them!❤️❤️❤️
They really do like them :D
I absolutely love watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful craftiness with me!!
I LOVE this idea! Very cute!
Thrilled! I am too!!! Such a sweet and easy fun craft. Thank you💕
Love the light up picture frames & the shadow boxes These will make cute Christmas gifts
Thank you so much! Yes, they will make awesome gifts!
I love it! Especially when you shut the light! God bless you, plus, you're a bubbly soul💞
Love how you used the box instead of the frame many of us used! Clever! 👏🏼💕🌹
OMG, what a beautiful and amazing Christmas shadow box creation, very smart of you too think of it, thank you for sharing, I Love it!
Incredibly creative and something that would cost a lot in another store already made
You completely rock. This is the cutest craft I have ever seen from the Dollar Tree!
Thank You Amber! Love L💓VE this project! It has such a Vintage flair about it!
Also appreciate your honesty about your trial and errors, Sames your viewers time and frustration! Lovely Piece to add to our Christmas favorites!
Keep up the Great work!
You can put snow on snowman hat. You can add an extra hole on bottom to reach tree switch. Also you can use the plug from the snowman to put into cut hole to protect from tin w/o having to use tape.
Absolutely gorgeous.
I love that idea making a shadow box. Love it !
You are my absolute favorite of the DIYers on CZcams.
Thank you so much for the kind words! I really do appreciate it.
So adorable! The idea of a Christmas nightlight is great!
Really magical.....so cute!
Love the shadow box!
Absolutely adorable!
If you find that removing the lid to turn the tree on and off is difficult, then steer away from this craft. It takes 2 seconds to remove the lid. If you leave the battery pack inside the box, it takes up entirely too much space! It will make the 'snow' in the bottom of the box lumpy, uneven, and won't allow for very many decorations. If you glue the tree down, then you cannot change the batteries later. I made 3 of these boxes before I settled on a method for the video. I do things for a reason.
Very good job!!!!
Great job. very well done and at a low cost
Glue the tree down and cut out a spot in the can to turn your tree on and off. That is a very cute idea.
This Southern Girl Can first time watching your show. Love this project! Gives me an idea to do with my grandsons! Thank you so much, for sharing this. I have also subscribed to your posts. Merry Christmas and God Bless!
Just watched your video awesome, made this with my granddaughters the only thing I did different is put tape on the wires that way I still can use my hot glue gun. Thank you for sharing and God bless
Oh im so in love with your beautiful creation & im going to do this myself. Thank you so very much for shareing your amazeing project. You are the QUEEN!!!

I love this! I actually already have the little tree. I am also pleased to know that Dollar Tree has the snow blanket. Those have been around since I was a child. My teachers in school always Incorporated them in classroom decorations. I have not seen them at my Dollar Tree, but I will be looking this year. I am recently retired and plan on making most of my gifts this year. You are really helping me out!
