So pretty all black and blue.
My mom had this jewelry box that she was going to get rid of, so I saved it. It was brown, but she thought she might like it better black so she spray painted it. So she did half of my work for me.

  • How to make a drawer. Re Vamped Jewelry Box - Step 1
    Step 1

    First I found this picture of these cool looking trees. I think it's sand pipers.

    Then I painstakingly copy and pasted the same pic into a bigger one. It took FOREVEEEER!!!

    Then I inverted the colors on it. Then I printed the image out on a full sheet of paper. I had to print about 4 of them to cover the whole box.

    First I taped everything off to keep from getting mod podge on unwanted spots. Then I mod podged the image to both sides.

    The drawers were a little harder. I wanted the image to line up just right.

    I just stuck a piece of the image under the glass top.

    Then I put a piece of black paper over the back of the piece in the window. I didn't want a big white square there. After everything was mod podged, I used a can of Satin spray sealer on the whole box. I didn't want the glossy look that mod podge gives off.

    Then I pulled out the inside liners. They were a light pink. I got these cobalt blue velvet papers at Joann's in the scrapbook section. I used a glue stick to cover the back of the velvet paper and then stuck them down to the pink liners. The drawers were the easy part.

    Then I lined inside the top of the box. The dividers were the hard part. Trying to fit them back in without tearing the paper was difficult. I didn't bother to cover the foam pads for the ring storage part. The rings I do have I never take off, so the additional ring spot is unneeded.

    My mom wants the box back now that I made it all pretty. So not happening.
