Cut a rectangle of cardboard about 2 feet wide and 3 feet tall.
Draw or paint a rectangle on the piece of cardboard so that it is perfectly centered with a 2 inch margin on all four sides.
Cover the inside rectangle with black tissue paper or fabric.
Cut pockets out of the same paper or fabric you use for the box background. Cut one pocket for each student or day.
Glue the side and bottom edges of the pocket to the inside rectangle. Position the pockets so that they are evenly spaced and form rows like the inside of a candy box.
Glue gold or red tissue paper along the margin at the edge of the cardboard to represent the tissue paper within a candy box.
Cut a second rectangle of cardboard the same size as the first.
Decorate the second rectangle with markers, paint, construction paper or ribbon to look like the lid of a box of candy.
Use a hole punch to punch two holes in the top of both cardboard rectangles, on hole in each corner.
Attach the two cardboard rectangles together by threading red ribbon through the holes and securing them with a bow. The pockets should be on the inside so that you can lift the candy box lid to view them.
Hang the bulletin board on a wall, displayed closed or with the lid propped open. Insert student names, assignments, days or other information in the bulletin board pockets.
