How to make a kids christmas eve box!

I’ve already had a lot of questions about how we did our Christmas Eve box so I wanted to share how we did it! It’s SO easy and such a fun tradition to start!

When I was younger I always remember Christmas eve being so fun and exciting because my siblings and I were always allowed to open one gift on Christmas Eve. It was so fun as a kid because we were not only excited about Christmas but Christmas eve too! I wanted to carry on the tradition but in another way. Each year we will gift Nathan a Christmas eve box filled with candy, pajamas, a toy, book, and a letter from Santa, etc. We might use it as our elf on the shelfs farewell too!

Heres how to make the box! You can click on the photos to purchase the items!
First I started with this box below! I found it at Michales and it was super easy because the back already had this decal on it and was already painted white. You could also just paint any white crate!

Then I bought these decals from etsy to apply to the blank side of the box! Super Easy. Hoping to get a cricut for Christmas so I can do this myself…. ;)

I made my own letter from Santa on Canva. Here’s what ours looks like and says for reference. You can also buy one on etsy! I’ll link those here!

Then I stuffed it with the following items, this year we just did books, and pajamas and the little moose! It will change as he gets older of course! Here are some of our favorite books and pjs!
