I made this SKULL BOX to use for a gift, but you could also use it as a jewelry box or treasure chest.

Take your unfinished paper mache box, and paint the entire thing black (inside & out). Let it dry.
Using your box as a template, take your sharpie and outline the shape of the bottom of the box onto your tiger printed felt, so that you have 2 squares. Cut them both out, and make adjustments if needed (for example, cut it more to fit perfectly inside the lid and bottom of the box). Glue to inside top & bottom, and let it dry.
Take your cardboard skull cutout (mine is from 'Creative Imaginiations' - Skull & Crossbones Collection), and glue it to the outside top of the lid. I also glued 4 screw stickers on the 4 corners on the top of the lid. Let it dry.
I put the lid on the box for positioning, and glued a lock sticker to the side of the box. Let it dry. You can seal with varnish if you'd like. *I also glued a piece of plain black felt on the bottom. Put in your gift or to store your personal items, jewelry, gold coins or loot. DONE!
