Hey there everyone, Emma here.....
Well this week I finally got some free time to have a play and make something a bit different that is going to make a fabby little gift!!!!
I found these great little bown chests from Hobbycraft as you can see in the picture below......
AFTER....
I had so much fun decorating this cute little Treasure Chest up!! I painted the top of the box with Tim Holtz Crackle Paint in Tattered Rose {LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff!!!!}, then I distressed the edges a little when it was all completely dry with some distress ink. I used some gorgeous papers from My Minds Eye all around the sides and distressed the edges.....
....Back View...
...The gorgeous lace is from the market....
....I used a little metal cream frame that I have had for ages, I distressed it up a bit and added some flowers and charms which are from Bunny Zoes, the tulle is from the market...
....I LOVE using Tim Holtz Crackle Paint, the effect is amazing and I really love the shabby/vintage look it gives to everything. I have used Rock Candy on the heart and some buttons from stash...
....I love using things with different textures on my creations, the pin is also from the local market and I have just added some extra beads of my own...
...this is the view of the top, I have used the very gorgeous Magnolia Angel Wing Die {LOVE this die!!}, loads of bits and bobs from stash, and I am loving the label making machine {we have had for ages!}, the labels look great on vintage creations...
....I have made the large gardenia flower and the tiny blossoms myself, the other flowers are a mix from Wild Orchid, Hobbycraft and Prima....
I hope you enjoyed looking at my little vintage creation, Thankyou for all your amazing comments I really love reading each and every one of them....
Big hugs
Emma
