Cinderella sewing box makeover...


Hi again! I posted this little gem on Facebook a while ago but didn't get round to writing a post about it. So here it is...
This little sewing box was in perfectly good order but soooo dull. I gave it a couple of coats of Autentico Velvet paint in Bath Stone (my latest favourite).....


and using an Autentico stencil (no, I am not sponsored by them!) I created a relief pattern in plaster of paris on the front panels.
These stencils are meant to be used with the Autentico medium but I didn't have any, so plaster of paris it had to be.


Here's a closeup so you can see the kind of effect it creates plus some of the crackle effect I also added.....



On the inside I decoupaged some lovely paper covered in angels bearing hearts.....


I called her Cinderella for obvious reasons ..... just call me the Furniture Fairy Godmother!

See you soon!
