About 4 months ago I bought this wood box to use for a craft project. I decided to use a suite case instead. So I put it away for another project.
I got it out the other day to use for my keyboard project. Well I struck out again. It wouldnt work for this project. I had previously removed the latch and hindges to paint it. It had ABC cut into the front and sides if the box.

I knew I wanted to cover the box with paper or cloth. I went through my scrapbook paper to find what I needed. I came across this white paper with gray flowered print. I also found blue paper to out on the inside of the box.

I cut the blue paper to fit inside the bottom and lid of the box. And then I inserted the paper.

I cut out all of pieces I needed of the gray flowered print paper for the outside of the box. I then decoupaged the paper to the outside of the box.

I found turquoise silk flowers and plastic jewels to decorate the outside of the box.

I hot glued the flowers and jewels to the lid of the box.
I filled my newly decorated box with craft supplies. It is perfect to hold craft supplies. It also looks nice on the book shelf.
