Ribbon Spool Gift Box or Jewelry Box

Hello Stampin' Friends!

So, this project is one of my entries for the Artisan Award this year.  I absolutely love how this little box turned out, and I always love seeing my items displayed at convention.  As you know I was not chosen as one of the top 20, but I still love pushing myself to see if I can make my projects better.  And you never know, maybe one day I'll make it.  Keep in mind that some of the items I used are items that have since retired.  We have plenty of items that it would be easily replaced with something out of the current catalog.

This 3D project is - Ribbon Spool Gift Box or Jewelry Box

So, if you have some empty mailing tubes left from when we sold those Definitely Decorative items, then you can re-create this project.  Or you can go to the office supply store and purchase them and make several out of them.  You will need to different sizes, a larger circle for the base and a smaller circle for the lid.

There will be a Tutorial for this project soon, so be sure to check back in about a week.  I'm working hard to get all of my tutorials finished for all of you.  Luckily I'm blessed with a husband that doesn't mind helping me get them edited and touched up.

Hope you like.  I think it turned out really nice and I'm sure anyone would be pleased to receive this with a small gift inside!!

Enjoy!!  Thanks for letting me share!
