Easy Updates: Custom Media Boxes.

We're trying to become a mostly digital houselhold. But we still have some media that we just don't plan to get rid of; namely VHS tapes and Nintendo games.

The problem:
I am not fond of those media towers.
So how do we store them?

Solution: Media boxes!

While media boxes tend to be inexpensive, they tend to only store a few at a time. And they are not always attractive. But I knew I could make my own with a little creative thinking.

So enter two empty boxes that were headed to the recycling bin. I removed both lids, then I covered each box in scrapbook paper.

I tried a colorblock pattern with the largest box. I simply cut large rectangles of the color paper and taped them in place using masking tape.

After their scrapbook paper makeovers, each box found a new home.

The larger box was missing something,
so I added a monogram letter!...my favorite finishing touch!
