I threw together this little project last week. Granted, it's not so much a 'fabric' project (although fabric is involved) as Vintage Fabric Project #1, but the box did come with my heap of vintage sewing goodies, so I officially declare, with auspicious, officious, and decorous decorum, this store-display-to-jewelry-chest upcycle to be Vintage Fabric Project #2.
Behold the before:
An embroidery floss/ crewel wool display case; nice honey-oak colored wood, three clear-fronted drawers, and a big DMC emblazoned on the top and sides. It was the adjustable dividers in the drawers, combined with the discombobulated, mish-mash state of my accessories, that got me thinking jewelry box.
And the after:
Isn't it pretty? May I just... express a little...um, if you'll excuse me for a mo'...
SQUEEEEEE!
I'm all better now.
Do you have projects have you finished lately that make you squee! for joy?
Share the links, I wanna see!
