"Hubby's Book Box & Bookmark" |
Creating Art and Jewelry in an Old World Style using Polymer Clay, Resin and Found Items by Lyn Gill

"Hubby's Book Box & Bookmark" is an altered book box I created using the G45 Olde Curiosity Shoppe paper collection. I really enjoyed creating this piece for the man in my life for the last 33 yrs. I thought this would be nice to place on the bedside table to throw change & other things from his pockets into. I created the book box itself from recycled chipboard. The spine is embossed cardstock that I ran through my bigshot with the cuttlebug "DeVine Swirls" embossing folder & the heat embossed it with the Ranger embossing powder in Copper & then I sprayed it lightly with LSG spray in Mission Bells Brown. I cover the book in paper from the collection & used stickers & chipboard embellishments also from the collection. There's lots of details on this one & I have a YT video on it as well.
I'll try to update this after the video uploads & also get a shot of the inside. Thanks for stopping by, Till next time!

ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy! I think he's gonna keep his pocket change & stuff in it on the nightstand. I think he really like it.
