I am attracted to vintage vanity pieces. The little gold plated filigree jewelry or trinket boxes, old vanity hand mirrors, hair spray can covers, lip stick stands, and tissue boxes. Well, I use hankies instead of Kleenex and my Mr. Wonderful uses, (does anyone else have a husband like this?) he uses paper towel. When my kids get colds I buy a box of lotion tissues or the new anti germ something or other.
What I meant to say is, I don't have a huge use for tissue boxes. So why do I keep buying them? So I can turn them into boxes. I know, how clever, how radical! Whatever! Here they are. I just love them, course, I loved them before too, so I might be a little partial. Hopefully someone out there will love them too.
I also have a thing for crushed velvet. If lovin' it is wrong, I don't wanna be right!

ReplyDeleteI love these!! I have a few of these boxes around and never would have thought of this idea. I love velvet and have a huge stash of old handles too.
ReplyDeleteMy husband uses hankies (with a monogram) weird, I know! I'll stick with tissues.
Glad you like my pumpkins. I'm wondering how long they'll last since I sprayed them. Probably not into next year,haha.
