Hello Everyone! I wanted to share this altered matchbox dresser that I have done for a swap over at CCL(Creating the Crafty Life). I love how this has turned out. I will be doing more of these I think. It was so fun and easy to do. I created my own matchboxes, why go spend money when I have cardstock right here that will work great for them. They are the smaller boxes.
The top of the dresser I created this back for it using a piece of light weight chipboard. I cut it into 2 pieces and rounded the corners with my corner chopper. I then glued them together to form the back. My embellishments are flowers from WOC(Wild Orchid Crafts) and some pearl bling from W2S(Want to Scrap). The wood pieces I got from a swap over at NBC(Nothing but Crafts), thanks Kim they worked so well for this. I also received the cameo form her as well.
The feet for the bottom I created from pearl beads and bead caps. I love how they came out. The last picture show that the drawers actually work. I used very small beads as the handles. I added more pearl bling to each side of the dresser. The paper line I used was from Graphic 45, love them!!! And finally I used my favorite(for right now lol) medium, gesso to give it that something extra!! I hope you have enjoyed my post today, and please stop back again! Happy Scrapping!!
great project and very very pretty!!
