Altered Storage Box








This started out as a naked wooden box for many years, until.........
first I painted the whole thing white, then once dry used mod podge glue to stick on papers from My Minds Eye stack named Bohemia. Then I used a brown stamp pad to distress around the edges of the wood and the paper.
Using Tim Holtz Hardware Findings die, I cut 4 decorative hinge things out of thick card, bashed the living daylights out of them with Tim Holtz texture hammer. Painted them dark brown and when dry rubbed gold rub-ons over the surface. Then stuck them into position using silicone glue. My Paul then kindly drilled a single hole through each draw centre. Using random knobs bought from local DIY centre attached them one to each draw.
