Kate Spade Inspired Box Makeover
{Check out my Christmas house tour by clicking HERE}
Today I’m sharing a quick and easy box makeover with you that was inspired by my Kate Spade cellphone cover. And actually not much painting was involved. I promise no annoying taping off stripes.
You see, a while back I bought a couple of these velvet lined boxes at Goodwill for $2 each which originally were from Target. You can’t see it in this photo but the box was actually pretty beat up.
I have also been looking for a way to use up all my leftover strips of wall grade vinyl that accumulate from my Etsy shop. If you are wondering how this applies to you, well you can buy wall vinyl at most craft stores for cutters like the silhouette cameo. They come in sheets.
I wiped the box, primed it with some Kilz primer and then painted it with my favorite white semi gloss Rustoleum spray paint.
After it dried, all I had to do is cut the vinyl leftovers into strips and stick them onto the box.
As simple as peel and stick. No taping off stripes and messy painting. I love doing this and when I’m sick of this look I can just peel the vinyl off and do something else. This would look awesome as a gift box, wouldn’t it?
I had such a great time taking pictures of the box out in the snow. Can you tell?
You can actually spot the snow flakes and the wet spots on the box.
I love this simple makeover. You too?
So see you tomorrow?
I hope so 😉

It’s so pretty! I’m obsessed with Kate. I have sent Nate every single Kate Spade e-mail I have received since October. Subtle, right?
Gorgeous! Love the setup as well. =)
I love it Julia! These babies can be very expensive when buying them so using the Goodwill box to get this look was a great idea..
Great idea Julia! I never know what to do with those leftover strips and hate wasting them.

I was expecting gold polka dots, knowing you and Kate! 🙂 SO pretty, and such a great use for the leftovers!
This is beautiful. What can’t gold make beautiful? 🙂 I love the black and white tray it’s on too!

So sexy! Great photos too. I have one of those boxes from Target that I painted pink. And it’s gettin the stink eye right about now :p
Wow that is a pretty box. I love the gold stripes and the black band around the lid. This box will look good anywhere 🙂
Gorgeous! Pinned for later, I love it.
My kind of project!!! Turned out super pretty! Who wouldn’t like something Kate Spade inspired?
Julia, I’m pretty sure this needs to come live at my house. Like, right now! 🙂 Love it.

This box turned out great Julia!
This is awesome! Beautiful transformation! And I always love Kate Spade anything 🙂
I love it very much too Julia; very pretty! 🙂 How fun you went outside to take the pictures 😉
Gorgeous photos, Julia!
When it arrives to fashion, women will do anything that they can in order to look good and and the Kate Spade Tote Bag is something that women cannot oppose buying for themselves.
I think the price of gold and diamonds have risen. I’m glad though that many people can buy gold nowadays because the price of gold dropped in April this year.
