Cubee

I love this cute project that turns a crochet bee into a box shape! This fun project is made primarily with two panels of mini C2C crochet.

You sew the panels together and use a box as an insert to give your bee structure and form. 

You could drill holes in the box and insert an LED light to use as it as a nightlight. Secondly, you could put some weight in the box and use it as a bookend!

If the box was sturdy enough it would be a great box seat for your little ones! You could also choose to stuff the bee with polyfill instead of using a box to make it extra snuggly.
