Okay, so I am working on something that I have wanted to do for a very long time. Since I am a professional procrastinator, "someday" always seems to take quite awhile to arrive...and finally the "Someday I am going to do something with the cute little cigar boxes" arrived!
I decided to post some pics as I go along. Hopefully I will finish my project without messing up more than I already have. But I guess that is the great thing about these projects...If you 'mess' up, you can always just..well, alter it!
I have already started the top of my box because I couldn't wait. You can see the pics here. The top isn't finished, but partially done. So far there is only one aspect that I am not happy with...but hopefully by the time I am finished, I will make peace with it...;)
Isn't this a gorgeous gal in this vintage image? As soon as I can remember the site from which I printed it from, I will post it here (it's on my other computer which isn't running at the moment). I appreciate this photo so much, I think credit is due from where I received it for free.
Side of box. It is only painted right now...but not for long! Check back in to see progress...:)
These are so much fun to make! Find old cigar boxes (usually only for sale) or one similar, add some papers, your favorite image, and little doo-dads here and there. Try it out!
