Pretty ugly box huh?
I used the Crafty Secret's Girlfriend Creative Scraps to cover the box. Of course I also used some vintage buttons, ribbon, and a couple of pearls to dress it up. So what do you put in such a box?
Well......martini magnets of course! What's better than a few martinis holding up those important papers on the fridge?! I used some glass pebbles from Michaels. The martini image is from the Craft Secret's Chandelier Fun set. I colored it with my Copics, cut it out, and mounted it on red paper. I used Crystal Effect to adhere the glass pebble to it. When that is dry, cut around the pebble, then glue the magnet to the back of it.

I have a card too to share today! Totally unrelated to the above box! ( They don't match at all! )But, I did use the same set........ Chandelier Fun.
I stamped the chandelier in Versamark, then used white sparkly embossing powder. I did the same with the "chain" but did cut that itty bitty thing out! The candles were stamped in Momento black, colored with Copics, and yes.......they were each cut out! The paper is SU! and Basic Grey.

Can you see the "chain" hanging there?
............and my lil' candles?

Fabulous, Michele! Love both your projects! I especially appreciate your chandelier card--I love cutting out tiny details & I know how time-consuming it is--but always satisfying, isn't it? Always love what you do!

Michele, I LOVE your altered staple box! It turned out so cute and I love the martini magnets too! I can never throw anything away either so I totally understand!! Love your card too! Both of your projects are Fantastic!!
Way too fun!! I too am a collect-aholic. I collect all sorts of boxes and tins and whatever else I think I may be able to 'alter' at some point. My DH bought me a filing cabinet just for my little treasures. Every once in a while I take an hour to sift through the treasures to inspire me. Very cute idea and execution!! YOU ROCK!!
