Many years ago I made a similar box for my mom. It was called Victorian sewing box. I used a glue gun and remember burning my fingers since I did not use clothes pins. I put a fabric covered button in the middle of the lid and tied vintage lookin tassel on it. Since my box was square I added brass corners to it. My mom still uses it today. Yor box is very beautiful. Great work. Thank you for posting the tutorial. I think I will make a few of your boxes for Christmas presents.
