I picked up this rather ugly box last week mainly because it had a large top surface which I thought would take a graphic nicely...
here's the boring inside.......
...and here's the new outside. I'd decided, on a whim, to paint the inside violet and it started a whole theme. So I painted the design on the top....
a bit more detail...
and here's the inside in pretty violet with a lovely label from Karen over at the Graphics Fairy....
here's a close up of the pretty perfume label 'Parma Violets' from Grasse - perfect!
But it didn't stop there...I was on a floral theme by now and pulled out this little chest that I've been meaning to transform for ages - pretty dull right?
but look what some paint and wax and a graphic from lovely Karen over at the Graphics Fairy can do!
here's a shot of the lid, the label worked perfectly with the color and finish...
and why stop there? I added another little rose in a heart with a butterfly inside for a little surprise when you open the lid!
Hope you've enjoyed my floral themed post! Thanks for looking x
