Why not design personalized money boxes. These are perfect as gifts of money and for their own savings. The piggy banks are wrapped with paper. Enjoy this relaxing paper crafting fun!

How to create a money box
Select a motif paper of your choice for crafting and cut a paper strip that completely encases the money box.

Therefore, cut a long paper strip with a width of 7 cm (corresponds to the height of the money box), wrap it around the money box and thus easily determine the exact length of the paper strip. With the ruler and a scalpel, this cutting certainly succeeds perfectly.

Stick a strip of double-sided tape on the top and bottom edge of the money box, remove the protective film. Stick the paper strip around the ring-pull tin.
Individual messages
Using pinking shears, cut out any shape from white paper. This can be a circle, rectangle or something crazy. Label this homemade label with your personal message using a fineliner. This can be a congratulations, a simple statement or a motivational saying.

The label can now be attached to the can either with double-sided tape or - provided with a hole - with the help of a cord or ribbon.
Small accessories for the perfect look
Small colored tassels on a cotton cord are another decorative detail in our idea. With you, the money boxes are perfectly designed!
