Altered Fairy Box

I bought a box of chipboard letters the other day and although I loved the letters it was the box that sold me! Yes I admit it I bought them for the box! My mind was running amuck thinking of all the things I could do with it, but in the end a fairy box won out.

Here is what it looked like before I altered it...

I first gave it a coat of gesso and then dry brushed some fluid acrylic paint over the gesso. Once that dried I spritz the inside and outside with Color Mists and heat set it.

I also added some rub-ons and used chalk inks around the edges...

...and then spritz the inside and out with Color Mists. Once it was dry I sealed it with PYMII.

I then added a strip of edging that I colored with Krylon gold leafing paint and added rhinestones to cover the holes.

I finished it off by adding some iridescent Angelina Fibers, a fairy, bird, and dried flowers and last but not least some wooden legs I colored with chalk inks.

This Fairy Box is for sale if your interested email me ($30.00)
