Arty Art Box

Hello my lovelies!
Just wanted to share something with you.
I've been having a rough week health wise & felt quite low.
So, I decided to brighten up something!
 
The 'something' was my art box! My mum got me it for Xmas last year. It's a baby box... you know the white ones that have a little shelf thing in! Well, I'd mentioned to Mum, about the one we had when I was a child. It used to sit in our bathroom with all the bath stuff inside. I thought that it would make a great art box to put in all my art essentials. She no longer had the original one but got me a modern equivalent! 
Thanks mum!
 
Anyway, I decided to give it a good spraying with some Decoart Media Misters. Lots of lovely colours!
Used some metallic copper paint though a Doily stencil which I love! (It's very mandala-ish which calls to my inner hippy!) I also used the Swirly Garden stencil for the corners.
 
 
 
 Here it is open...
 
Loving all the drippage!
My art box finally looks like it's mine! ;)
 
I see over at the PaperArtsy blog the theme is Sprays so I would like to enter this for the challenge! My first one for ages!
 
I hope you like it as much as I do!
Thanks for stopping by.

  9. It looks great Sarah! I had a M....care box when I had my children and once I nolonger needed it for baby stuff I used it for years as a sewing box when I was into designing and making clothes. It certainly earned it's keep but never looked as pretty as yours, lol!
