Sewing Box - All Sewn Up

Here is a little project that can be done in the evenings in front of the TV.

I have a TV on my work bench.

Everyone should have one.

What do I have here?

I picked up a craft box for cheap. It was a little knocked but nothing that a bit of wood filler won't fix.

Simple stuff here. A paint brush and a bit of paint. Bob's your uncle.

Paint test pots are just the right size.

I was given a handy hint for cleaning up the dust after sanding.

Use a piece of packing foam and rub down the surfaces.

It is a cheap option than something from the hardware shop.

I've got some letters to put on the top of the box

I made a bit of a mess of painting the letters.

I decided to cover them with felt too.

I like felt.

Time to relax for a while and let the paint dry.

I wanted to line the box with felt.

I glued some foam to the underside of the lid for a pincushion.

And here is the finished sewing box
