One of the best parts of planning a wedding has definitely got to be the DIY craft projects!
The project for today was a wedding card box (also known as an ang bao/ “red packet” box in Singapore).
As people usually place money inside cards or red packets, I decided that a box would be better than an open case. Just for safety reasons, as cautioned by the wiser, older folks ;)

Some time ago, I came up with a tutorial on how to make a ring box in 5 minutes. This definitely helps to organize your rings and saves space on your dresser when you mount them on the wall!
However, certain chunky rings wouldn’t be able to fit themselves into the thin slits of this design. So… here’s a new design for chunky rings specifically!

Are your rings often in a heap on your dresser? Even in plates and bowls, rings tend to get messy.
I have no idea how I’ve put up with digging out my rings or even forgetting about some at the bottom of the heap:
Unfortunately, a lot of the ring holders I see in stores are somewhat old-school. I wanted something simple with a clean look. I also wanted to wall mount this to free up space on my dresser.
And so I made my own using a spare small box and some cheap melamine foam that you can get at the two-dollar store. (For those in Singapore, I got it at Daiso!)
Sharing how I made this ring holder box here so you can make one of your own. Cheap and fast – who wouldn’t like it! :)
