You can see some examples of our handmade little boxes in the photo. You can realize them
for decorating your home at Christmas or for giving them as a gift to people who like handmade objects.
You have only to summon all your patience!
Paint your boxes with the colour you've chosen. Let them dry and then put on a second coat of paint. Let them dry again. You can also paint the inner part,
if you want.
Meanwhile think of the drawing you want to obtain. Then trace the pattern with a pencil on the cover. Spread the glue with its brush on every line and
arrange the beads with the tweezers. Look at the enlarged photos for more details.
Let them dry.
These boxes are very elegant for the chosen colours. In fact they are blue and we used matching beads as you can see in the photo. But you can use
contrasting colours too in order to obtain different effects.
