Today is my day to host over on the 3GirlJam Blogspot.
I have a project that I worked on for some time. My husband & I have prescription bottles that we take medicine from every day. I did not want the bottles sitting out in view when company came so I made this box.
On the front of the box, I used the gold jute from the 3GirlJam Jute/Ribbon/String Pack. The paper is from Graphic45 By the Sea and the knob & feet are from Tim Holz.
I made the flowers from the Red, White & Blue Crinkle Ribbon Bundle which I think looks quite nautical. The buttons have string from the Jute/String Pack. In honor of Earth Day, I used packaging from a bag of oranges to make a "fence" across the front. The lighthouse and sentiment nautical as well as the anchor on front are from Authentique Anchored. I used Mudd Puddles Sand and all of the bling is from my stash.
Here is a close up of the flowers I made. I started with a circle punch and just twisted the crinkle ribbon attaching it occasionally with a glue gun, then I added some bling in the center.
I did not paint the edges of the inside of the box because I kinda liked the rough nautical look. What do you think? Should I paint it?
So that is my project for today. I want to remind you that you can get the Spring Flowers Crinkle Ribbon Bundle for only $1.00 when you make a purchase at the 3GirlJam shop this month.
