Hi! I just wanted to share my project over at the Gauche Alchemy blog. I think we all have these lying around the house somewhere.... An empty box. Mine used to house a corporate gift. It's black and sturdy and it seemed such a waste to just put it in the recycling bin. So I made a gift box.
I mod-podged some old music paper on the cover and then used tulle (love the drama it creates!:) to create a floral bow (at least to me! ;). I used my trusty stapler first then stitched up the whole thing with pearls and a vintage button! (Supplies can be found in the Wedding Night White Mixed Media Kit).
It was quick to put together and would certainly make a lovely gift box to house some pretty stuff. I'm going to fill mine up with some goodies and make someone else happy! :) Would you like me to send this to you? Pin It
