Making old into new
I always like to find stuff around my house that I can transform and make new before I believe it's a total lost cause and give it away. I was on pinterest the other day and found these jewelry boxes that had been refurbished that looked exactly like a jewelry box I had when I was little. Of course that's when all the sand paper and paint all started to fly out and I started to make my masterpiece. I got the idea from http://happydayvintage.blogspot.com/. You basically can get creative with it. I used magazine paper from my favorite cooking magazine on the drawers, which I put on with modge podge. Of course before all the painting and adding of wall paper, magazine paper etc. you have to sand it down. Unless of course you bought a plain wooden jelwery box to begin with.
