  • 3 Hat boxes in tapered sizes
    Crepe paper
    plastic roses
    exacto knife

This wedding craft project shows you how to make a collection box for those wedding cards.

Take your 3 hat boxes and cut the bases and lids out from each box, allowing a 1 inch edge so you have something to glue it to the next box with.

Obviously the top box lid only needs a small slit in it for the envelopes to go in. The bottom box doesn't need its base removing either or all your cards will fall out.

Glue the 3 boxes together to form the cake.

Decorate the boxes with crepe paper icing and plastic roses.

Alternatively you may be able to pick up a wedding cake pinata which you can adapt by placing a hole in the top and sealing the bottom.

Great idea and so much less expensive than buying one from a Bride's site!

A great idea, but rather an awkward size to store. Maybe a one-layer square version would be better (although not as eye-catching!).
