Plain wooden boxes are like catnip to me. I have to paint, sketch, scrap, embellish and alter them in any direction my muse takes me. This was a $5 cigar box.
It has been sitting in the attic for several months. I brought it down to my studio a few days ago with no idea as to what I wanted to do with it. I decided that I would yarn-bomb it. Currently, I am on a yarn-bombing spree. I do not knit or crochet but wrap knitting yarn around objects in a variety of ways using glue to hold it in place. You could call it yarn-bombing redux :)
In the photo above, you can see the design with yarn and fabric. I gave the box a funky look by adding tall legs which were also yarnbombed. Now the humble box is a magnificent gallery stand for all kinds of objects!
Thanks for visiting.
I love its bohemian charm! what a brilliant idea of attaching those legs.
