Altered Tea Box

I love Lipton white tea! I drink so many that I fell bad on throwing away all of these pretty containers. So last night I played with one of it and it worked so I'm going to show you how. Just read the next post I put step by step picture and explanation, Have fun.
If you have any question feel free to email me.

Altered Tea Box tutorial

1: Open the tea box on the glued part and sand it lightly(this will make it glue to the paper easier).

2: Cover it with pattern paper and ink the edges.
3: Using a strong glue, put together the box like it was originally.

4: Now you can embellish it.

Cuffs

My sister come to visit us last week from Italy and she asked my to make two cuffs for her. I have to say that my sister style is the opposite of mine so I had to think really hard to make something she would like. These are the two cuffs I made for her, using black canvas and black lace.

Give Away

This week I finally had time to catch up with my craft after a rest time. So after making Sophia dress I decided to scrapbook. I need to catch up with my girls album I'm so behind.

Sophia dress

I don't know if you do the same but I find myself buying patterns and when I try they do not work! How upsetting! So after promising myself I will never buy anymore here I am with a new pattern, and surprise this time it worked. I used pink fig pattern (the girl skirt n.4) for the skirt and I made the corset pattern myself. When I finished the sewing part I made some flower for the headband and this is the result. I can finally say I found a good pattern.

Headband

I wanted to do this project from awhile but I never find the time for it. So today it was snowing so bad than I decided to make something I enjoy watching the snow. I previously dyed the fabric so it was ready to became three pretty rosette, and I added some swarowsky crystal -because everything look prettier with swarowsky crystal-.
