That Village House

Gift-Box Topiary

Pile up the presents. Overscale boxes, wrapped in sturdy paper and topped off with ribbon, perch atop a footed urn for a whimsical twist on the usual topiary. Want to take this idea a step or two farther? Line porch steps with tiny wrapped boxes, stack faux gifts like columns beside the front door, or glue small boxes in varying sizes to a wreath form and mount it on the door.
