Bliss in a Box

You are currently viewing Bliss in a Box

I moved 7 times before I was in second grade, so needless to say I'm an experienced mover. As an adult, I moved from Green Bay to Burbank, IL, Burank to Aurora, IL and then Aurora back to Burbank when we sold our house. We ended up for about a month having to live out of my in-laws garage. (Who knew my entire house fit into a 3 car garage?) Now, I'm not moving anytime soon, but I have friends who are moving within the next month or two. That is why I took part in the Bliss in a Box challenge. We were going to have some fun with moving boxes before we packed them up to get moved! Now, between us, we've got 5 kids (4 girls and 1 boy).

Our Bliss Box Kit contained 11 boxes, packing tape, a marker, and bubblewrap. Here's what we came up with:

Yes! We used the moving boxes to make an archway to the castle! (Castle not included in the Bliss Box Kit). The kids loved it! I also think we deserve some bonus points for using all the boxes in our creation and using the white plastic that was holding the boxes together when we got them (it's the bow on the top of the top box). Also, yes that top box is almost touching the ceiling. I could walk underneath this. We also used the packing tape to tape the bow we made on and used it for some counter-balance weight.

What would you do with a Bliss Box Kit?
