Make something awesome out of those too-tall empty cracker boxes. Tall Box Nichos are a snap to make and look great plain or decorated. Beautiful for holidays - put an LED candle inside for easy elegance!

The Nicho

March 17, 2020

What’s a Nicho? It’s your own little world to decorate and love. Make one in about two minutes out of just about any box you have on hand. Enjoy it plain, put something inside, or decorate it any way you want. It’s yours!

Hi and welcome to Right Now Crafts! Even if you’re not sure which end of the pencil to use you can make any of the crafts on this site, right now, using the skills and the stuff you already have. Look around and let’s find you something awesome to make!

I’m Holly Czapski, Boston-based craft writer, paper tinkerer, and big believer in make vs. buy. I design original crafts that are extra fun and easy because they’re built around recycled materials. If you have little makers in your life these crafts are perfect to do together. They’re low-mess, low-stress, and there’s zero waiting for stuff to dry. Most need just scissors and tape. Crafting super-powers not required! If fact even if you’ve never made a thing in your life you can make these crafts.

I call them Right Now Crafts because you really could make one right now and have something wonderful in your hands in just a few minutes. How great would that be.

Let’s get started!
