★ VINTAGE LITTLE BOX ★

I made this little box with all recycled material. It's really easy to make and you only need basic tools.

WHAT YOU NEED

MATERIALS:
-a little box (you can make one out of cardboard);
-music score page;
-glue gun (I used some other glue, but the glue gun is better because is transparent);
-coffee;
-paper stick glue;
-pet food aluminum container.

TOOLS:
-scissors;
-pliers;
-brush.

PAINT THE SCORE

Paint the music score page with coffee to make it look aged.
Allowed to dry

GLUE THE SCORE

Cut the flat part of the aluminum container in stripes, bend one of the long edges a little bit and roll it up like a little rose.

→Pay attention to don't cut yourself during the whole project.

IMPROVE THE ROSES

Make the rose prettier: cut some flower shapes on the aluminum and stick them under each rose with the glue gun.

MAKE THE LEAVES

Cut many little leaves shapes in the aluminum.
Make a line in the middle and many on the sides of it, with something pointy (I used the scissors).
Fold them a little bit in half with the pliers.

DECORATE THE BOX

You can use the same decoration for many craft, like photo frame or jewelry.
