Think men's suiting!.!.!.

pinstripes, for example!.!.!.

Use a suede paper in a neutral grey all over the box, then find a black ribbon with red or white pinstripe (or you could just cut long strips of paper in the same motif)!. Use it across the bottom edge of the bottom of the box and around the edge of the lid!. You could also put it on a diagonal across the top of the box, and leave the edges grey!.

Accent it with cufflink-looking embellishments from the scrapbooking section of the craft store!. Maybe one on each face!.

Remember to line the box with cellophane, or else all you hard work will end up with grease spots from the brownies!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That depends on what he likes and what his personality is!. If he's into sports, you could put footballs or soccer balls or baseballs on it!. unless he's really girly, you probably wouldn't want to put rainbows and hearts and pink!. try using dark purples, greens, and blues!. maybe use black construction paper to make silhouettes on the outside of the box!. it also depends on his age!.!.!.you know him best, so you need to think about what he would like his box to look likeWww@QuestionHome@Com

Brownies!? Maybe you should try some brown color on your box!. 'Cause color matching makes things look nice and neat!. But don't forget to add some other bright colors to make it some emphatic points!. Light pink and light blue look good with brown!.
And let's see!. "Happy birthday!" or a figure of a cake or presents might look fun on it!. Add certain stuff like spirals, polka dots, or squares to cover the plain areas (Don't make it a muddle of decorations, though)!. And maybe some glitter, too =D

Good luck! ^!.^Www@QuestionHome@Com
