Jewelry Box

My grandma has this jewelry box. And I loved it. I thought it was so neat. So, my wonderful Aunt Chris made me one for Christmas one year! It was given to me unpainted and I left it that way for a while, until my Grandma had one of her friends paint it for me. As far as I can remember, the friend turned out to be kind of shady. This being said, I am not very attached to the design of the painting, more just to the jewelry box itself. So. I am going to repaint it and fix it up!

I am going to start with the doors first and decide on a paper to use to cover them. I will have to find something I love because I don't want to redo it anytime soon (anytime soon = never). I am going to paint over the existing design with something clear so that I can perhaps save it in case I wake up in 20 years and say "what was I thinking??" I doubt this will happen, but you never know. I am also going to add knobs to the doors and new pulls on the drawers.

Anyway, here is the before! This little jewelry box won't know what hit it!


I haven't really been interested in home projects lately, so hopefully this will help me get out of that funk!

Digital Scrapbooking

A few months ago I began digital scrapbooking. I haven't played around with it too much until yesterday when I created these pages...I don't think I could ever give up traditional scrapbooking, but for now, I am loving digital!
