The Box Book: Original Projects for All Ages

By Clare Beaton

Boxes of any shape and size can be transformed into a delightful range of ornaments and gifts for all ages. Beaton has created over 30 original designs using a variety of easily accessible and inexpensive materials and simple techniques such as stenciling, collage and mosaic. Children will love the unusual dinosaur and the textured boxes using string, shells and seeds. For special presents, try making a lattice potpourri container or traditional Shaker-style box. Techniques are explained, templates are provided and for each project there are clear-illustrated step-by-step instructions as well as a color photo of the finished box. Variations on the decorative ideas are suggested.
