How to Make Mosaic Boxes for Kids
These mosaic decorated craft boxes would be great for a group craft session of almost any number of kids.
The card mosaic shapes are available in different designs and are really versatile for many children's craft activities.
You could use them for a wide and varied range of children's themed craft sessions, perhaps using them as a base for an under the sea decorated box and then adding some sea life sticker shapes over the top.
Why not add some of our foam mosaic shapes and foil mosaic shapes, perhaps finishing with some glitter glue? All of these are available in our children's craft shop.
Craft Supplies to Buy
