Your box is so beautiful. I love how you've used the fragments. The buttons scare me somewhat though, would have to use it to store something else, you know how weird I am about buttons!!!

At 43 years of age I can certainly say I remember this phrase - strange as I never liked Crackerjack, always too loud for my liking.
I never tire of seeing dressmaking artwork. This is as good as it gets, amazing detail and love your colour choice.

What a fabulous box Brenda, it reminds me of a box my Gran had filled with buttons. I used to sit for ages making pretty patterns on a tray with all her lovely buttons.

This is beautiful! I really love how you painted it! You can't go wrong with TH embellies. Isn't funny how we picture one thing and another emerges? I hear it's the muse setting itself free!
Hi Brenda

This project is gorgeous.. How long did it take you?
Warm hug to you.
