a.k.a. The Ultimate Box Makeover Today I want to show you how to transform one of those inexpensive little gift boxes you can pick up in the dollar shops into a beautiful keepsake box perfect for holding jewellery and other precious items. You may have noticed that I decorated the top of my box with the handmade roses we made in a previous tutorial but you can add whatever embellishments suit the theme or purpose of your creation. Requirements: 1 gift box Co-ordinating patterned papers - enough to cover the whole box Adhesives - I used strong liquid glue, double sided tape and glue dots Matte varnish - optional Soft brush for applying the varnish Small metal hinges - available in hardward stores and most variety supermarkets Small metal brads Piercing tool Pencil and eraser For Embellishing: Assorted ribbon Braiding Flowers Self-adhesive pearls - I used Kaisercraft Metal ball feet - I used the ones from Tim Holtz Metal key hole and key - I used the ones from Tim Holtz 1. Start with your gift box. The one I chose was about 6" long and 4" wide and made from covered cardboard. It cost about $2.50 from a discount store at the local shopping centre. When selecting your box, look for one that has a very loose lid as you will be building up the sides with patterned paper making it a much tighter fit. You also want a box that is nice and straight without twists, bends and buckled sides. Check that the box is sturdy and not coming loose at any of the joins. 2. Cover the entire box, inside and out including the lid, with patterned paper. I used papers from the gorgeous Capella series by Basic Grey. Try to keep any joins at the back of your project, preferrably away from the corners and edges of the box where the majority of the wearing will occur. Use reliable adhesives to keep the papers secured. If your original box is smooth and slick like mine was it's a good idea to give it a quick sanding to help the adhesive grip better. 3. Apply two or three coats of clear matte varnish to your project to help maintain it's strength and keep it safe from dust and dirt. Make sure you choose a good quality varnish that will not yellow over time and apply it with a nice soft brush. Allow to dry. 4. Applying the hinges can be a little tricky as they are going to be attached in a slightly different way than normal. Look closely at the following pictures and read the instructions carefully. The screws or nails that come with the hinges are no good for our project since they are much too long and won't hold if we cut them to size. This is where the little brads and the strong adhesive are required. Measure and mark the placement of the hinges on the INSIDE of the box lid. (Normally hinges are positioned on the outside of a box, but because we are using a lid that overlaps the bottom we need to place the two sections of the hinge in different places.) My hinges are placed about 1" from either side. You will need to adjust this measurement if either your box or hinges are larger or smaller than mine. 5. Use your piercing tool to punch holes through the box lid. This is where you will attach your hinge with the little brads. 6. Apply some strong liquid glue to the right side of the top section of your hinge and glue to the inside of the box lid, lining up the holes of the hinge with the holes you punched in the previous step. 7. Push the brads through the box lid then through the hinge so that the tops of the brads are visible on the outside of the lid. As you can see from the picture below, the moving part of the hinge rests above the lip of the box lid. 8. Open the brads on the inside of the box lid as shown below. I use a small hammer to neatly flatten and tighten the brads. 9. Repeat the process with the other brad. Allow the glue to dry before continuing. 10. Place the lid securely on the box and use the pencil to mark the position of the holes in the lower section of the hinge. 11. Punch through the box with your piercing tool then secure the bottom section of the hinge to the outside of the box with liquid adhesive and the little brads just as you did with the lid. 12. Open the brads on the inside of the box and gently flatten with the hammer. Allow the glue to dry completly. 13. You have now completed the basic hinged box. The remainder of this tutorial deals with the outer embellishments that I added to my own project, which you may wish to use as a guide for your own creation. 14. The next step is to attach the metal feet. Please note that this is the method I personally use to attach these items to my projects. You may wish to visit Tim's site for more ideas and uses for his products. 15. Using strong liquid adhesive (I use Pritt glue) attach the ball feet to the bottom of the box. Attach all four at once and hold them in place with several rubber bands stretched around all four feet. Ensure you have a rubber band (or tie of some kind) keeping tension on the top of the feet and one keeping tension on the bottom of the feet. Stand your project up and weight it down slightly as the glue dries. Along with the rubber bands, I placed a heavy book on top of my box and left it to dry overnight. 16. To hide the brad ends that are visible on the inside of the box, I attached a piece of ribbon and a bow. Measure the inside of the box so that your ribbon is even all the way around. Attach the ribbon in a single length with double sided tape or glue. The bow is made and attached separately over the join. 17. Glue some co-ordinating braid around the box lid. Be sure you secure this well with adhesive as it tends to be the place people will put their fingers to open the lid. (If you look closely you can see the rubber bands still holding the metal feet in place.) 18. Now it's a matter of embellishing the top and sides of the box as desired. I glued a Tim Holtz metal lock to the front of the box and a key on the top. I added lots of pearls and some handmade flowers to complete the look.

Today we are welcoming Nicola, otherwise known as Paper Profusion, as our Guest Designer. Nicola was chosen as the DT winner of the Christmas Preparations challenge back at the beginning of December. So, let's move on to hear from Nicola and see the fabulous project she's made for the current challenge, New Year Resolutions. I’m Nicola a.k.a. ‘Paper Profusion’ living in Dublin, Ireland. I’ve loved handicrafts for as long as I can remember, probably inspired by my Mum who excelled at every single crafting technique out there. From very young I was an avid knitter and always enjoyed learning crafts especially ones involving paper. I’m now medically retired however during my ‘career / good health years’ my main creative hobby was photography especially travel/wildlife related. During a time of serious illness, I became hooked on paper crafting as it gave me an outlet to a home based hobby that I could dabble in, at my own pace. I’m particularly drawn to the vintage / shabby chic genres usually adding lots of embellishments and ribbon. My favourite occasion to craft for is Christmas. Thank-you so much to the Frilly and Funkie Team for allowing me to feature as Guest Designer today. I'm absolutely delighted to guest design for Frilly and Funkie for this challenge. My primary New Year resolution is to spend less time at the pc and smartphone and more time outdoors. Whilst the weather is not totally attractive to venture out into right now I wanted to create something that would entice me outdoors - I didn't need to look any further than Graphic 45's 'Secret Garden' papers. I've decorated a Tim Holtz Idea-ology configurations box with aforementioned papers and included lots of diecuts and embellishments. Added a light dusting of Frantage to the papers for interest. I cut the front lock from 2 pieces of chipboard using Bigz 'Hardware Findings' die. The box, Idea-ology box feet and lock have all been painted with gesso, then 2 coats of PaperArtsy 'Vintage Lace' paint and finally a top coat of PaperArtsy 'Metallic Glaze' to give a lovely pearlescent shimmer. Also stencilled some Butterflies and Dragonflies around the box sides with white texture paste and sprinkled on Distress Glitter in 'Clear Rock Candy' - after all those Christmas makes I think I might have withdrawal symptoms if I didn't include some sparkle. I'm sure you will agree that Nicola's project is absolutely gorgeous and what a fantastic New Year's Resolution ! The new challenge started yesterday so you have plenty of time to join in and with Nicola's further inspiration, I'm sure you'll be itching to get started ! Remember if you would like to join us for a Guest Designer spot all you have to do is join in !

Эти деревянные вазы с пробирками - простой проект, который можно закончить менее чем за один час если у вас есть все необходимые материалы. Идея для это проекта у меня возникла, когда я увидел в магазине вазы-силуэты из проволоки. Я сразу подумал – о, они так хорошо выглядят почему мне не сделать что-нибудь похожее из дерева. Данная статья является переводом, однако для удобства восприятия повествование будет идти от первого лица. Материал: Фанера или дерево - я использовала 3 мм фанеру из березы Cтеклянная пробирка* Наждачная бумага Клей для дерева (необязательно) Льняное масло (необязательно) Инструменты: лазерный гравер или лобзиковая пила ленточная шлифовальная машина (необязательно) * Я обнаружил, что обычно есть два типа пробирок. С небольшим выступающим кольцом в верхней части и с абсолютно ровной верхней частью. Для этого проекта, я выбрал пробирки с маленьким кольцом сверху. Каждая ваза для пробирок будет состоять из четырех отдельных деревянных частей: одна верхняя часть с отверстием для пробирки. две боковые части, создающие форму вазы и одна нижняя часть Чтобы вазы можно было соединить, я решил использовать врезные и шиповые соединения. Врезные и шиповые соединения функционируют следующим образом: один конец куска дерева вставляется в отверстие в другом куске дерева. В верхней и нижней части будут два прямоугольных выреза, а на обоих концах боковых частей имеются соответствующие шипы. Если вы не используете лазерный станок для резки, вы можете упростить дизайн конструкции, исключив вырезы и выступы и просто склеив детали.
