Altered Wood Boxes~Flower Storage

Hi Friends! Today I'm sharing another project that's part of my Crafty Organization series I've been working on. I was given some wood boxes by someone who thought I could use them in my craft room. After "scrappin" them up...here is what I now use to store some of my packaged paper flowers....

This is what they looked like before (minus the slots on the inside)....

Here's a video that shows you the items I used to create these lovely boxes along with how I have them stored in my craft room....

 Before I put the designer paper on the boxes, I put a coat of Gesso on the edges, base and top of each box to hide some of the darker wood grain. I then used some craft paint over the top of the Gesso'd areas. Next I added the papers after inking the edges, wrapped some Maya Road trim around the boxes and put some pretty purple flowers & trims on the front. I did do some light sanding on the boxes as well to create that shabby chic look I love so much. 

I really love how these turned out and they are the perfect addition to my flower storage solution. 

Thanks for stopping by and for checking out another ScrappinAbby post. 

Happy Crafting : )
