Decorative Boxes

 I finally had some time to hang out in my craftroom today and this is what I accomplished after I cleaned my table off (no small feat!)  I have had these black shiny boxes sitting around for quite some time, so I decided it was time to do something with them.  I added some decorative papers and some ribbons and a bit of glitter to make these.

Below are the kinds of products I used.  They aren't exact, but you could make these using the stuff I've posted below. 

These are the type of boxes I used...

You could use this kind of chipboard alphabet for the numbers on the top.  I used raw ones as seen below...and covered them with glitter.



I couldn't find the polka-dot crepe paper that I used on box number two online, but any crepe paper will do!  Just fold it back and forth and attach the center of the circle with some hot glue!
I used a black yarn like this one around the edge of box number 3.  I also used satin ribbon folded back and forth and glued into a fan fold.

Very wonderful masterpiece! You really have a good taste for art. And I suppose the materials you used aren't too expensive? Your works are really amazing.

I've been doing reviews of similar stuffs on this site: http://www.decorativestorageboxesnow.org/

They have amazing designs too.
