Trash to Treasure


Hi all

I altered a  choclate box using washi tape and decorated with some handmade flowers. I thought i will put an inspirational quote on each side of the box and here is the result. I am happy that i made something useful to me and can use it as a storage.  These are the quotes i really liked so much and every time i read i feel inspired.  I first stuck the tissue paper to the box and pasted white paper and covered the edges with purple washi tape.  Bird at the bottom is a sticker.








Hope you like it. thanks for visiting.

My son's Guest book
