I needed to make Christmas presents last year and I came up with a yummy solution if I do say so myself! I took an old pocky box, hot glued a colourful feather boa from the dollar store around it, cut out a bunch of paper triangles for 'teeth', made a cardboard top hat, stuck on some pipe cleaner 'arms' and a pair of large googly eyes! When it was done I thought it was quite cute and very easy! My one friend uses it to hide money, its a nice sized hidey hole that doesn't seem like a hidey hole smile It could probably be done with larger or smaller sized boxes to either decorate or disguise, maybe even books! but be careful of the feathers! they can get everywhere!

That sounds like such a cool idea! Do you have a picture of it that you could post?
