Magazine Storage Box
by Sharon JeffsOne thing I seem to have amassed this year is tonnes of magazines, ones I can't bear to throw out because I love the ideas in them. Thats why I decided to create a storage box to put them all in.
I began mine by finding an appropriate sized cardboard box that I cut to the right size then covered with patterned papers.
Along the front I added a strip of lace and ribbon, then I added a hinge to each of the front edges since I didn't wrap the ribbon all the way around the box and I wanted to hide the edges.
On the front I added various die cit frames that I created and inked. At the very centre of these I placed a stamped panel that featured the awesome stamped image "Paris on the Mind" stamped over the top of the "French Newsprint" stamp.
To finish off my box I added a few Ideology embellishments as seen in the photo above. Finally, I added a ribbon bow to the right side of this panel with a wishbone added to the centre of this.
Products used:
- Bo Bunny Trail Mix - Hollow and Lakeside
- Ranger Inkpad - Walnut Stain
- Spellbinder Dies
- May Arts - Lace and Stitched Grosgrain
- Tim Holtz Ideology - Wish Bone, Hinges, Watch Face, Swivel Clasp and Hitch Fastener
- Frantic Stamper Stamps - French Newspaper and Paris on the Mind
What a great idea, we all have so many magazines laying around! Love the design.....
