Altered Boxes

A wile ago I made some altered boxes ( see youtube video ) using compartment boxes from http://www.craftyindividuals.co.uk/ (under 'must haves'). Just a fun item to work with and they have so many possibilities but most important of all they are not expensive to buy :)

The first one I made was a plaque, using 1 box;

Then I made 2 more, by using 2 boxes you can made a little altered book box;


Us crafters always collect little pieces that we might use one day, these boxes are a fun way to display your little treasures.

    Your altered boxes are wonderful -- now I am in the mood for trying something similar.

    Happy creating,
