Bee happy ..... get the glue out!

I found this box the other day when sorting out a few things and wondered what I could do with it.

It was holding a necklace from Boden but now the necklace is on my hooks the box was redundant!

It has a little ribbon tag which pulls a drawer out.


After wondering for a few days I decided to get out the glue and stick bits to it and use my new stamps from Cox and Cox!




I'm really pleased with the result, I think I'm going to store my luggage tags in when I have stamped or decoupaged them :)

Bee happy x
Have a delicious day!

  10. The box is fabulous and I must say that the chair you covered on the previous post is so pretty. I once covered our computer chair with fun fur (cow print!) - well computer chairs are a bit drab aren't they?

    Love your blog btw, I'll be back!
