Recycled Ribbon Box

Sorry, Loads of pics with this one, but I had to share this wonderful find with you!
Whilst trudging around a car boot sale I found this beautiful "hat box" for just £4!! It measures 12x12x8 inches. Hubby said "what do you need that thing for?" Men....



I NEED it to keep my ribbons in Derr!
I have tried to keep them in tidy packets, but I never used them. Soooo, I emptied them all out int the box and can rummage to my hearts content :D


Then I thought "I should personalise it a bit". Inspired by this weeks Try It On Tuesday Challenge# A bit of Up-cycling!, I added a few fabric Roses to the lid (this will stop me piling things on top)


Then I painted and inked some Tim Holtz Grunge paper letters, and glued them to the box front(so I remember what's in the box)


Only a little alteration required but I'm happy with the result :D

Enjoy :D XXX
