Elle, what mistake??? I know you did tell us, but if you hadn't probably no one would have noticed. We are our own worst critics aren't we????
Another beautiful box. I think the mistake was like a Freudian slip, so now you have a box for you, LOL ;-) . But truly it is lovely.

Way to go Patti. Love the box, it came out beautiful and you did a fantastic job. Love purple and white together. Thanks for posting the finished product.

Your description of DH just cracks me up!!! He's a MANLY MAN!!! 8-) 8-) 8-) What a great place to empty his pockets into at night!!!

that is a great box, I am thinking maybe getting DS to help make them on his day for his sisters, something that he can help make without a lot of sewing and something that the girls could use. I will have to reread the supplies and look when I head in today

sandpat 12-13-2009 02:37 PM

Yes CB...your DS could do it...the sewing is mostly hand sewing though. There is lots of gluing and waiting for the glue to dry. DH thought I worked on it forever...but it was mostly doing a little here, then wait...then do a little more....then wait.... ;)

Good idea, Cutie - as long as he doesn't get glue everywhere except the box, things should go well.

Amma, why not - DH's always have pockets full of STUFF, don't they?

He has been known to pick up a needle and thread on occasion. I insist that all the kids have the basics down. He is pretty good with glue as well. I tend to try and do a lot of hand crafts with the kids. Though it is harder now that are older and info other things.

Well then he should be a natural to help you with these for the girls. Go for it.
