PA topic #2 Hearts - Heart Box

The current Paperartsy topic is "Hearts" - where to start, too many choices.......in the end I decided to decorate a lovely heart shaped box I've had for ages.  I gave the top and bottom a coat of Space Cadet.  For the bottom I randomly stencilled in Sky and edged with blue gilding wax.

 

 
The top received some wonderful crackles with a top coat of Sky over crackle glaze. I decided the box would be useful to store some of sewing accessories in. With this in mind I edged the lid with some tape measure ribbon and trimmed with an assortment of embellishments.

 
 
 

Thank you for looking x
