Upcycled Cell Phone Box Into Jewelry Case - Craft Lightning

Jennifer Priest
by Jennifer Priest
IWe recently got new cell phones and when you get anything new, it almost always comes in a box. How many times have you bought something packaged in a nice box and got sad at having to throw the box away? I am a big fan of repurposing product packaging to meet other needs so when my husband was cleaning out his office and found the empty cell phone boxes, he saved them for me. I wasn't sure what I was going to create and then it hit me: a travel jewelry case! This jewelry case can be used to hold a gift, to organize jewelry at home, or as a travel jewelry case.
