Crafting with David – Treasure Box

This week’s David decided we needed to do a treasure box. I had this old brownie box I’d been keeping so we decided to convert it.

We took a bunch of the excess paper I had from scrappy projects and tore it up to smaller pieces.

We then covered the box with glue and stuck the papers haphazardly so they covered the box. David did all the sticking with a little guidance from me. I then covered the whole thing with another layer of glue and we left it to dry.

We then did the sides and the other piece.

We cut off all the excess paper, glued down the stay bits and the next thing we knew, we had a fully covered box, waiting to hold some treasures. We might embellish it more but it looks pretty perfect as it is.
