Memory box 2

 
 This was a easter box I got in The Works.
 
 
 First I sanded the whole thing then gave it 2 coats of white acrylic paint then while still wet 
I added 2 lilacs 1 light and 1 dark i gave it a quick coat of the light,
then dabed the dark in the wet,
 
 
 Then played with it till i was hapy with the look and while still wet i used a thin brush and added gold 
to give a marble look,
To do this hold brush at end and twerl and flick dont be precise,

 

 Then left to dry i added some lilac ribbon around the edge of the lid and a bow on top i got a tag and coloured it darker than the lid and made a small bow for this,
I then added some flowers a fether and a large butterfly 
all with silcone and to finish i glazed the base and parts of the lid then while wet sprickled iredesent glitter on to finish.
 



Hope you all like, thanks for stopping by.
Love and Hugs
