Acrylics, Collage, Beeswax, and more :).........




I just finished this project today. It's a wooden file box approx. 9" x 12".

The first picture is of the top that I collaged using decorative papers, images, some hand drawings, acrylic paints, stamping, and some fun embellishments. I finished the piece off with a thin layer of beeswax. The second picture is a sideview of the box. I have two more, to go, and each one is smaller than the other.

I hope you are all having a good weekend and finding some art time for yourself :)

Love to all..............................Marilyn xxoo

Great box, Marilyn. It´s one of those projects I´m always too lazy for, LOL ... I have two smaller house shaped boxes that could be decorated much faster than my Gothic Arch box, but I can´t pull myself together to start with them.

I love everything about it. The patchwork elements, the words, textures, colors and all the dimensional elements that add such whimsy.
