French Country Tissue Box

Good Morning Folks.  I hope you all had a lovely Bank Holiday week-end.  The weather here was very changeable with rain, sun and wind.  To-day is beautiful sunshine and bright blue skies.  I think we all benefit so much from sunshine too.
My post to-day is another tissue box that I made for my lovely daughter Anne or Annie as she is known to everyone else. I used the Graphic 45 French Country papers for this one as it was Anne's choice and it will suit her decor perfectly.  I think you'll agree those papers are absolutely stunning and a joy to work with too.
Hope you are all enjoy your day and busily crafting and to those of you not feeling up to it, I hope you feel better soon.   Thank-you for the lovely comments left on my posts,  I really appreciate them all so much.
Hugs Rita xxxx

Those papers are indeed wonderful and you've made a beautiful (and useful) gift with them. Love the little extra touches such as the ladybird.

Absolutely delicious - a wonderful way to use those lovely papers, and a great gift that I'm sure Anne/Annie will love! (I know all about that - Ally to a select few, Alison to the rest of the world!) Can't believe I've only just clocked that the two of you are related... lovely to know!

I love your tissue boxes Rita - it's worth getting a cold just to have this out on display! Annie will love it. Hugs, Jenny x

I don't buy much 12 x 12 paper any more, but I have to admit that I LOVE this collection. I think it has something to do with the roosters since I'm crazy about them. LOL I'm afraid I'm going to have to break down and buy it. Your tissue box would work so well in my kitchen. :-) Love it! Hugs!

I love these tissue boxes you make - I have printed out the instructions but as yet are still on my desk waiting for me to get in the stride, maybe today (who knows) your cards and gift boxes are truly beautiful Rita - smiles Jean x

Hi Rita,
another stunning creation. I love all your details and papers used. I keep getting emails from Graphic 45.
I wanted to make one of these tissue boxes and downloaded the instructions, but because I have a problem with my eyes can't see the measurements on a ruler to make one. My hubby did say he would do it for me but he hasn't found the time yet, as he has his own project on the go at the mo.
Won't be around the blogs for 4 or 5 days as I am going away.
Have a wonderful crafty day.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

Super project. I love the papers but have difficulty with double sided papers as I don't want to hide any of it. xx Flora

Denise Price said...

Great idea to make a tissue box. You've made a mundane object into a beautiful piece of home decor.
