Bling Box

My friend was moving and getting rid of a few of her things. I saw this box where she was storing old receipts and bills, she was about to get rid of it. It was sturdy, but  little banged up. I knew that those little drawers would be perfect for storing my bling! So I got my paper and gear out to alter this most wonderful box to store all my precious gems!


I had to carefully remove the drawer handles before wrapping them, then I attached the handles back to the box with gemstone brads and Zip Dry glue to make sure they were secure.

The words were done with Gypsy font and welded together then cut on chipboard and then on to DCWV glitter paper, inked and blinged! The patterned papers are a mix of DCWV Nana's Kids sheets and K & Company Amy Butler Belle sheets. The ribbon I had in my stash and the flowers are from Petaloo Daisy Box Blends, I so love their flowers!


Happy scrapping!
