vanilla sugar

the challenge over on the vanilla sugar blog this month is to 'decorate, make or alter a box, jar or tin.'
i've decorated a box that had incence sticks in. it's a very simply decorated box because it's the inside that counts!
i've made it for my daughters 18th at the end of the month....she collects these beads so i thought i'd make her something to store them in...i've got her another bracelet and some beads and left some space so she can put the one's she already has into it.

What a wonderful mum you are Tracy. Fantastic box and I love how you have turned the use around to store her beads and bracelet. Where did you source the bead bars from? I have this type of bracelet too and it would be great to have something like this to store the beads on.
