Last-minute gift packing

There’s still time for those 11th-hour gifts

There are so many occasions when you might need to lay your hands on a small gift at short notice –for a kind neighbour, perhaps, who takes in your parcels when you’re out, or for a girlfriend who’s invited you round for coffee and a chat. We’ve got the solution: you can make this attractive gift box in just five minutes. All you need are some paper cups with a metallic finish and a selection of edding gloss paint markers in fantastic colours. The colours in the edding gloss paint marker range include trendy pastels in a variety of shades – ideal for transforming paper cups into awesome gift boxes in a flash! Choose from pastel yellow, pastel rose, pastel blue and pastel green, and don’t worry because all the colours are not only smudge-proof and waterproof, they’re also completely opaque.
