    I have a great idea for this box for those that can’t find the lighted tree.
    What you do is purchase 2 of the tree pictures you are using for this. Glue one to the back of the box, then cut out the tree image from the second one and glue it on to a stiff piece of cardboard and cut around the tree image again. Then glue pieces or cork, foam, cardboard, etc.. to the back of the image. Anything that will make the tree stand out from the background image and will allow you to hide the light string under. Then poke holes in the tree pic where you would put lights on a tree. Then poke them through (but not all the way) only enough to see some light. Tape or glue the cords to the back of the tree and/or background to hide them. Then glue or tape your tree 🌲 to the background right over the background tree or even a little off to the side to make it look like several trees.
    You can also add tiny ornaments to the tree and background to give the whole box that three dimensional look. It really turn out GREAT!
    HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE! ⛄️🦌🎅🏻🤶🏻

    OK, now I'm obsessed. Just finished the 10th one. I used mostly Christmas cards as the back grounds so there is a scene in back. One is children looking in toy store window on the back wall then I "fussy cut" (if you quilt you know the words) more children and put them closer to the front of the box so it is 3D. I cut a tree in half and put on the side - decorated with a glitter that makes it look like Christmas balls. Wish I could post a picture, really cute.

    So simple and cute, my head is spinning with ideas. I have a few extra light sets. And alot of miniture ornaments and things to place in there. They could be themed, like Nutcracker suite, Disney, Fairies, Santa n Elves, Christmas time Disney princesses. Or trucks n road equipment for boys, Santas workshop at the North Pole. Thank you much.

    I love this! I actually already have the little tree. I am also pleased to know that Dollar Tree has the snow blanket. Those have been around since I was a child. My teachers in school always Incorporated them in classroom decorations. I have not seen them at my Dollar Tree, but I will be looking this year. I am recently retired and plan on making most of my gifts this year. You are really helping me out!

    You can put snow on snowman hat. You can add an extra hole on bottom to reach tree switch. Also you can use the plug from the snowman to put into cut hole to protect from tin w/o having to use tape.
