DIY: decorated boxes

Firstly i'd like to point out i'm not to great with arty stuff but i though these were cute! now that's been pointed out away we go with the details.

You will need:
any sized box. (mines an old jewelry box)
glitter or paint.
buttons, sequins, gems or stickers.
PVA glue.

1. take your box and remove any thing that is inside it (that holds the jewelry in place if its a box like mine)

2. cover it in glue if you are sprinkling glitter over it like mine or paint your box and wait for your paint/glitter to dry.

3. You can now add buttons,gems,stickers or sequins in any pattern or shape you'd like. (i thought the first initial of my name in buttons looked rather sweet and a few gems at the side)

4. once your box is dry you can use it for whatever you like, mine is used to store little positive notes and when i feel down i can read them :)

this wasn't supposed to be an amazing tutorial, i just thought i'd try something abit more alternative on my blog, any feedback on whether i should do more but with more detail let me know.
