If you’d like to order a customized micro chest, please check out my Showroom of Luxurious Boxes & Gifts.
In this week’s Blog Exclusive post I’m sharing an altered micro chest. You’ve seen me do these before, as nursery decor pieces and as gift boxes both feminine and masculine.
This time I was asked to add a micro treasure chest to one of my customized 100% photo explosion boxes, with the added challenge to work in only one color, creating a so-called monochrome project: white. So I painted the chest white, then matted it with some white wood texture paper that I embossed with a wood pattern first. Finally I created some faux leather strips from white cardstock. I’m quite pleased with the effect, and with the surprisingly different shades of white that are – apparently – possible.
Have you ever created any monochrome projects? Do you like them at all? Please share your thoughts in the comment section underneath this post!
