My Little Vintage Box.



Time really has got the better of me this week...you know when you want to get so much done,  but in reality you've achieved very little..... anyway enough moaning from me, here is my little vintage box, it's got a super little window in the lid, so I found a lovely Crafty Individual printed image to fit in there.
The box I decoupatched with cream and black tissue, it really is very pretty, then once dry I rubbed some Inka Gold in to the creases and along the edges, although I'm sorry to say only one of the photo's picked that up. Then I added the lace to trim the base of the box.For the top I've used some ready made flowers, just twisted them together,snipped off the surplus wire and hot glued them to the box, adding a black bow. Finally I added the vintage butterfly with 2 gold beads for its body.
No doubt my daughter will snag this box,lol...
