Is that box sturdy and err... clean?
The problem with upcycling boxes is that people think that you like to collect empty boxes too...and proceed to pass you ALL of their empty boxes....*LOL*
Actually I'm rather picky about boxes...they have to be sturdy and at the very least clean....[I've gotten some pretty disgusting boxes...]*LOL*
Supplies: Lily Bee patterned papers, Cuttlebug embossing folder, Crate Paper sticker, Gauche Alchemy embellishments.
P/s: Hope you are enjoying the last few days of 2011 my friends! I'll be taking a little bloggy break. See you in 2012! :)

love the doilies used! happy new year!
That is so funny! I get all sorts of weird stuff too, along with the question, "Is this a craft?" I love what you did with the boxes.
beautiful container. Love your upcycled projects. Hope I can get to play your Lessology challenge next year. Happy holidays!
LOLOLOLOL That happens to me too, people are always giving me empty containers and what not. I just love the top of this, you get so much layering and detail in such a tiny space!
I always love it when you re-use something and I absolutely love this one.
Have a Happy New Year my friend.
Members of my family are *always* giving me stuff that they think I should upcycle. The problem is that I'm a pretty contrary kind of person. I only like to upcycle to things that *I* find or think to save!!! Anyway, I can relate. Love what you did with this, Yvonne. Happy New Year!
Chuckling at the idea of someone giving you a dirty box. I recently put some of the ribbon you gave me to work over here :)
You make me laugh I know about people who wants to help and give you a lot of things..and than it is dirty...
But this box me friend is absolutely amazing!
Love that doily and all of the pretty embellies. Have a Happy New Year! Hugs!!!
Awesome! Love the doily and all the fussy cut flowers. Great container, too. This is awesome, Yvonne!
