Embellished Box
Hello Everyone, I hope you are all enjoying this glorious sunshine,
long may it continue. I managed to get some 'Me' time to-day and
managed to decorate one of my boxes. I needed a box to hold a gift for a
friend, and as I always have boxes at the ready, just to decorate they
came in handy. The box itself is just over 4" square and 2" deep and I
used some gold millinery net to make a bow and added two of my gold
roses that I gilded with wax. ( love using the wax ) a few pearls and
swirls and my box was complete. My little doggie companion,who belongs
to my younger daughter and is a Miniature Schnauzer called Buachaille.
He went back home on Friday and we both are missing him already.
Kitchen is nearly finished now apart from the decorating, but we both
needed a day off ,so I found myself up in my craft room and Andrew is
enjoying his beloved football.

Hi Rita,
this is a very superbly decorated box. Love the gold roses and that embossing you have used.
I hate decorating the house all the up side down and all that.
You deserve a well earned rest as kitchen's are very hard to decorate too.
Have a wonderful crafty day.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Beautiful and glamorous - so very elegant. No matter what the gift is, this box is gorgeous! Yet another technique, the wax gilding. Been reading about that, I better Google it 'fore I forget what it was I meant to look up! Your roses are magnificient. TFS such a beauty.
