An altered box.... For the Craft Fair...

Hi everyone,

I hope you are all enjoying a crafty day,

This is my latest creation,

I'm involved with a craft fair, Taking place later in the month,

This is one of the items I'll be selling,

I would value your opinions.

This is how the box looked when I bought it.

My first job was to remove the hinges & clasp,

Then I got rid of any loose pieces with sand paper.

Then came the fun bit... Decorating...

I started by gluing a piece of wallpaper on to the lid, 

Then I coated it all with Gesso.

I then applied a coat of paint,

Once this was dry, I finished with a coat of Modge Podge.

Finally, I added the pretty bits.
