This is a box that I found, an old berry or candy box I believe as it still has the label on the end. Well, apparently someone else that owned this box had a woodburning tool and burned a beautiful design onto the sides and top, one side was not completed though. But that makes me love it all the more. I love it even though it wasn't a finished piece of work. Kind of like us, right? We're never finished being who we are, being our best ~ we are all definitely a work in progress.
Here are the shots of the bird box ~ I'm really pleased with how it turned out! For sale in my Etsy store.
xxoo, Dawn

Oh, I love this. What a great project. I love that vintage paper. Everything about it is lovely. Nice idea!
Dawn, it looks lovely.

That is beautiful. No wonder it sold so fast.
I just noticed where the box came from. White River Junction, Vermont is a acute little train town. Somewhere I have pictures from a Day out With Thomas the Tank (and lots of our cousins).
Dawn how pretty! You have such a creative mind....Angela is one lucky lady!
