Materials:
- three hula hoops
- screws
- large empty box
- foam board
- contact paper, any design
- beads
- LED strip light (with dots)
- LED string (with dots)
- glue gun
- pen, for lining
- ruler
- cutter
Directions:
Step 1
Take your large empty box and create an opening in the middle where you will insert the hula hoops. Cut it open with a cutter. Add layers of foam board inside so that it will be thick enough to hold the hoops. Glue them down using hot glue. Make a hole also right through the boards for the hoops. Now, cover the sides with any design of contact paper including the top.

Step 2
Moving on with the hoops, figure out what shape you would like them to look like when they’re standing on the box and attach them with screws. After this, spray paint them with gold or any color you like. Now, attach the LED strip to the hoops. Once you’re finished attaching the strip lights, put the hoops into the box as well as the strip lights. You can use a strong adhesive to keep the hoops in place together with the box. You can also put some beads for added design.
