TRANSFORMATION!!!!

Awhile back I found this recipe box at the thrift store. Its not really my style but I saw potential, especially for $2.00.
 

 
 I removed the wood lettering and the little wood bees. Then I sanded the whole box.




Second coat of paint and some stenciling.
 
 
 
 
I used some colorful paper to decoupage the inside.
 
 
 
 
I decided to do a needle punch for the top of the box.
 

Here is the finished product.


Here is a preview of the new rug I have started working on, more to come.
