Cheese Box

The Cheese Box

Looking at all the cute blogs about repurposing junk inspired me to try my hand at an ordinary authentic cheese box. 



The thing was quite raw and rough......But out came my turquoise paint.  I'm kind of stuck on that color right now.

 

Using a beaded doily I found at a junk store and a crochet collar my sister found at a garage sale, I was able to put together a 'top'.  I painted the collar as well as some lace in bronze.  Also added some bronze to the  box to tone down the turquoise.

 


My photography skills have not improved, but here it is.

 

A close up to show detail........This will be in my craft booth in Southdown this fall...
