Bambi Keepsake Box
Transforming a Wooden Box into a Bambi-Inspired Gift
A Heartfelt Craft Inspired by My Granddaughter’s Love for Bambi
When my granddaughter expressed her love for Bambi, I knew I had to create something special for her. I started with a simple, small wooden box I picked up from Dollar Tree, and with a little creativity, I transformed it into a charming, personalized keepsake.
The process began by selecting a Bambi scene image online, which I used as a reference to contour the wood. I then added a touch of magic with white modeling clay, which I carefully shaped on top of the box, securing it with wood glue. To make it even more personal, I etched my granddaughter’s name into the design, adding that extra special touch. After giving it a full 24 hours to dry, I finished the project with a combination of acrylic and chalk paints, followed by wrapping a soft canvas ribbon around the box to complete the look.
Materials Used:
- Small wooden box (Dollar Tree, 5"x5")
- DAS Wood & White Modeling Clay
- Wood Glue
- Silicone Molds
- Canvas Ribbon
- Acrylic & Chalk Paint
This project is not only easy and affordable, but it’s also a meaningful way to show your love and create something that will be cherished for years to come.
