Wooden Box
Craft Ideas

This section of Shellcraft-guides presents wooden box craft ideas. Each project combines a box with seashells, sand and other items. These guides will give you a basis for making your own seashell arts and crafts using these boxes as your canvas.

There are a variety of styles of boxes available. They can be round, or square. They can be rectangular or octagonal in shape. The lids can be rounded, such as in treasure boxes, or their surface can be flat. These can all be used for these crafts.



These boxes can come with hinged lids or push on lids. Some of the boxes can even be securely closed with either a key or a lock. The first wood box craft idea presented here as project 1 uses a box with a hinged lid that is kept closed using small magnets.

The boxes used for these craft ideas have a variety of names. Listed here are some of these names:

wooden boxes
wood boxes
keepsake boxes
hobby boxes
treasure boxes
treasure chests
decorative boxes
trinket boxes

You can find them in craft stores and the hobby/craft areas of the larger department stores. They are usually displayed in the section where wood plaques, shadow boxes, and other wood items are kept.

They can also be found on craft supply websites. Most of these sites have sections for wood items, or bare wood items. Do a search for wood items or boxes once at the site.

As the names suggest, these boxes can have many different uses. You can use them as small jewelry boxes with or without a liner. Or keep your small treasures inside, hidden from prying eyes.

Or perhaps you are having, or are involved in a beach wedding and would like to craft some wedding favors. The smaller boxes crafted with seashells and sand would make great keepsake boxes for the guests.
