What does a fairy lovin' mess maker create for a shoebox makeover?
A Borrower's Box!
The box was made completely with stash, junk, and found or free objects.
(P.S. THANK YOU to all of my fabulous crafty patrons who send me stuff xoxo)
Here's a few of the interior details...
A bed made from an old sardine tin with a mossy pillow. The nightstand is a checker piece with bead feet.
The ladder is made from two old paintbrushes and matchsticks.
Notice the 'nerf' dart to the left? Yeah, there's about a zillion of them hiding all over my house.
A spool chair and a table made from a button and matchsticks.
(No wonder my bird feeder is empty. It's borrowers!)
The bottom floor is filled with necessary borrowing supplies like twine, pins, thumbtacks, birthday candles and, of course, super glue.
Here's an 'in progress' shot of that same area where you can see how it was built. The upper floors are made from an old game board that has been sliced up. The floor rests on clothespegs that have been taken apart. The springy part of the pegs were then bent and are now hooks for hanging things. And, you can also see the bottom floor has a cozy rug made from a burlap rice bag.
The only inkling that there's anything 'different' about this box from the outside is this tiny window on the back of the box
Other than that it's just an ordinary shoe box.
