Funky Fairy meets William Morris

I know that's an unlikely combination but this week's FF challenge was to alter somthing for storage and I had this great Christmas pressie of William Morris trowel and fork which I have put to use this week and decided the box sooooo needed to be kept especially as the drawer is plain gold inside and I need somewhere to keep my growing collection of cuttlebug dies and folders. Also decided that I wanted to keep the WM pattern on the sides so used some Funky Fairy Cool Coordinates paper and stamped flowers with the Doodles for Daniel collection stamps. Added a Papermania fabric flower and some gems and I now have another drawer to add to my collection. I made the double drawers it is resting on from scratch at a craft class nearly a year ago - 3mm thick card, paper taped seams and covered the lot inside and out with paper - and it has had a lot of use. I might now decorate more to match.

  2. Lovely box! I wish I could craft like you ;-) ! ... If you need any specific design (especially handwritten things, that you could print for instance), let me know! I'd be delighted to help (and that would give me a pretext to practice!)
