Pizza Box into Home Decor

Are you a broke college student, or just broke? Because, if you are... I have one CHEAP decoration you can make for your dorm room. All you need is to eat some pizza. I made this out of a pizza box and other random items that we had laying around. It literally cost me nothing, besides the pizza. Okay, enough talking, this is what I did.

1. Get a pizza box. Cut it in half, then cut the sides off. Be careful when cutting the sides off because we will use them later. So you should have two squares and a bunch of rectangles from the sides.
2. Hot glue the two squares together so that way you have a nice thick base.
3. Paint! Paint the cardboard whatever you want. I did a pink background, then when the pink dried I splattered different colored paint on it. I just went all splatter happy. This will be the color of your letters.
4. After the paint dried, I used the blue painters tape to outline my letters. I did block letters since it was easier. Just lay the tape on the board however you want, you can do letters or design. Make sure you leave at least an inch for the fake frame that will be added on later.
5. After that, I painted over the tape and the whole board black.
6. Pick four of the rectangles to create the frame. I painted each piece black, but you can do whatever you want.
7. After all the paint dries, remove the tape on the board and BAM you have your cool letters and then hot glue the rectangles on the board to create the fake frame.
8. I added random left over buttons just to add a little dazzle to the frame. I also attempted to do a glittered heart, but kind of messed up. haha.
9. Next step was to get a piece of left over ribbon and hot glue it to the back so you can easily hang it up!

Here is the finish product. Just have fun, be creative, and just be you! :) xoxo
