make a jewelry box from a wooden tea box
So I saw this simple wooden tea box and decided to make a jewelry box out from it. You can find the tutorial on my blog, there is a link http://gothicallyyours.blogspot.com/2011/09/diy-goth-boc.html

The style I chose was dark and spooky, but that's how I am. As a title says, it's a Goth box, but you can make your own in any color you like ;)

    Step 1

    Put some desired color paint on a plate and dilute it with a little water.
    Then use a sponge and gently cover the box in thin layer of paint. This way the pattern of wood will be seen trough the paint. I find it very attractive :)

You said this was a Tea Box? I don't have any specialty shops where I live. Did yours come with Tea in it, or was it empty? Because I do know around the Holidays they sometimes put out Gift sets with Tea and such, but they are kinda pricey.
