The only tools needed for this box are a sharp pair of scissors, crafts nippers and a hot glue gun.
\nThis design has a big intact due to the contrast between the white box and the red ribbon and dark cone.<\/p>\n
Estimate the amount of ribbon you will need by wrapping a string around the box twice and allow some extra ribbon for the rays of the bow. <\/p>\n
For an alternate version place the ribbons at 45 degree angles to the wrapping ribbon.
\nTrim the ends of the ribbon on an angle using sharp scissors.<\/p>\n
Pick pine cones of a size which will not dominate the top of the box.
\nCones of a 1 to 1.5 inch diameter are just about right. If you pick them your self make sure the cones are clean and dry. <\/p>\n

Tip … When you are gluing the rays of the bow to the box let them lie just beside the knot from the wrapping ribbon. This way you will be able to glue the flat ribbons directly to the box in a few places.
\nAlso remember that if you tie the top intersection ribbons together your guest will have a more difficult time opening the box.<\/p>\n
Take care not to knock the pine cones off when you move the boxes to the party location.<\/p>\n
Pack them on layer high in cardboard soft drink flats purloined from the grocery store.
