The Follow Your Heart collection designed by Rhonna Farrer is so soft and beautifully romantic and all the beautiful embellishments are like jewelry for your scrapbook pages and projects. I guess that’s why when I saw this cute, plain jewelry box on clearance at Target I thought of Follow Your Heart.
Many of you know of my love for mod podge and wood. When I want to really be creative, I turn to projects like that. For some reason, I chose to use double stick tape for this project. I guess I thought that mod podge is permanent and if I ever wanted to change up the colors in my room that I may want to change the jewelry box.
I would suggest that if you are creating this for a younger girl that you use mod podge. Isn’t it fun to have choices! *wink*
I used the Follow Your Heart – Be Happy color scheme. The soft colors blend so well together that you can really play with mixing patterns.
If you can’t get to a jewelry box from Target, you can pick up one from a thrift store. Most craft stores have paper mache or raw wood boxes. That’s another good place to check.
I had a lot of fun with this project. You will too. After you get the papers on the box, play around all the fun embellishments. Remember – you are adding jewelry to your jewelry box!
What a great time I had on Good Things Utah today. As usual, I have included instructions which you can download here: Download 2012_02_16_MME_Jewelry Box
When the video is ready to go, I’ll add it here.
Have a happy time creating!
