2. Prep the Container
Begin by prepping your empty oatmeal container. Start by covering the outside of the container with white duct tape. Make sure you’re using plenty of tape to make the container nice and sturdy. Then paint the inside of the container with white or pink paint to give it a nice, finished look. Once the paint is dry, use some of the corner sticker to add an extra bit of decoration to the inside of the box.
