A Novel Jewelry Box

Hello dear friends,

Thought I would share with you a wonderful and easy, yet very effective tutorial for a jewelery box/gift box that was shared to me by Sharon Tomlinson. Thanks Sharon.

The base of the box is the little box from Laughing Cow Cheese. I intend to make quite a few of these  boxes over the coming year, so it looks like I will be enjoying lots of this soft, creamy cheese. Actually, it only has 50 calories per wedge...so that's a bonus given the amount my family is going to have to consume!

Here are a few photos of the two boxes I have made, so far.

Two boxes almost complete.

I love the egg design and colours on this one.

Gold paint is painted inside. I didn't use quite the same colour as Sharon, but it still looks good, I think.

 I can't put the labels on yet...the jewelery still has to be completed before the box is sealed!

How easy is that! Head on over for a look at the tutorial......it's a lot of fun!

Hope you are having a good day,

Cheers,
