Jewelry Boxes

Here's my Christmas Break projects.

This is what it looked like before I decided to get crafty:


I decided to paint the jewelry box gray (though I think it looks pretty blue).

Then I lined the inside with a black and white polka dot fabric and a yellow and white striped fabric.


Then I put a black and white patterned paper on the sides and on the drawers. The finished product looks like this.


I decided not to do anything with the mirrors on the front. I kind of like them. I may try to trace the flowers with a darker paint, but for now, I think they are fine.

I also decided to play with my sisters jewelry box. She's 12 and never used it before because she thought it was too ugly and childish. Here's what it looked like before:


She painted it pink and yellow and we put yellow striped fabric on the insides. Then we took an old gift bag and put the patterned paper on the top of the jewelry box. The polka dot paper also came from the gift bag and we put heart shaped pieces on the handles. It turned out pretty cute.


Now I need a new project because I'm starting to get bored. :)

Jewelry Box

I bought this cool jewelry box yesterday when I was thrift store shopping. It's really cool and I want to use it but it needs a little touching up.


I need some inspiration! Any ideas?

My Snow Day

So, I decided I should go ahead and finish all my art projects I've been working on for my new room. Yes, the one that has no walls or floors right now. At least it has pretty things to hang on the walls that will soon be put up. :)

Here are the 3D Flower Pictures I made:

These are the two biggest frames:


These are the medium sized frames:


And these two are in the smallest frames:


Here's what they will look like when I hang them up on my non-existent walls:


Then I finished my bulletin board. I am going to put a black frame around the whole thing, I just have to spray paint the frame first. :)

The front:

The back:

I need to get a camera that is not my phone so I can actually put up decent pictures. Anyway, that's what I did today!
