Hallo,
Another box project to show you today - I do so love my boxes :)
This is a small box - 5 by 6 and 1/4 and 3 inches tall (4 and 1/4 with the feet.)
I covered the box with pretty papers and lined the inside bottom with dark blue felt, added some old drawer pulls for feet and a small tassel to the lid latch.
The image I used on the top is from Karen Middleton and is called 'Unicorn Dreams'
I really love this image - have always had a thing for unicorns and Pegasus....
I colored him with prismacolor pencils and added some glitter to him horn and tiny lines in his mane too.
I had some blue and green flowers picked out but somehow the white just seem to be what he wanted a bit more :)
All for today - Take Care

I am about to adventure into the life of Retirement and am looking forward to significantly more time in the studio, playing with my Grandkids and traveling now and then with the hubby. I have spent 41 years as an RN - mostly in Critical Care. I picked up painting and more formal art again when my kids went from High School into college. I have always done some form of art, even in the busy years of Career, Mom, Military wife - mostly in the crafty forms(sewing, rubber stamping, its a long list...) Now I mainly paint with encaustic wax. Encaustic is an ancient art form from Greece and Egypt that uses beeswax, natural tree resin and pigments. Encaustic is painted while melted in thin layers and every layer is fused to those below with heat( I mostly use a torch). True to my 'normal' self I have 3 or 4 other hobbies that keep me busy too , and you will be seeing(and have been) those here too.
