A box in a weekend

You might wonder what I have been upp to this weekend... Well I made a box.
I have all kinds of handpiecing projects in the livingroom and I thought I would make a box for all of it so that it looks a bit more tidy. Also it is always a plus to know were things are...

I started on friday afternoon, together with my friend Helena and Weronica, who also wanted to make a box, but made very different ones.

The fabric dilemma:
You know when you have a fabric which is just beautifull. You know that you want to use it for something special, but don't know what. I had bought a fabric for making this box. I didn't think about using my special one because I was saving it for something special. But I dicided that the box was going to be special and there was no reasson to keep saving this fabric so I used my special fabric from Robert Kaufmann. I read the same kind of thoughts in an other blogg by Linda. So here it is in my special fabric! The size is approx: 16 inch by 10 inch by 10 inch.

This is the outside of the box:

And the tray I made for holding my sissors and so on:


Well this took all weekend!

Hope you hade a great weekend as well!
