Dad’s box

clouiseem

The size of this box is 29,5 x 19,5 x 10,5 cm.

I used green mottled scrapbook paper on the top, the front, the back and half the sides of a shoe box. On the rest of it I used dark brown paper. I’ve rubbed with the black ink pad on all edges of the box to make it look like something you’d find at a flea market or in the attic.

On the top of the lid I glued a few different paper cut outs; watches, a pen, a piece of paper, tiny calendars etc, as you can see on the picture. The letters A, T, O and M are my dad’s initials. I added them to make it more personal. And if you look really closely at the calendar on the left (March) you’ll see I’ve highlighted the 7th with red color. That’s his birthday ;)
