Default Re-styled storage boxes!!

Hi I got these two lovely storage boxes from the lovely MISETUSA a few weeks ago. I collect 1970's items and need some matching storage boxes so I repainted these with some 70's geometric patterns so they match my other bits. 1 coat of varnish and there you go.

Not to everyones taste but I love em :)

there was alot of measuring involved to get them right, i had pics from the net from old fabric and i copied the main design, couldn't trace them unfortunately as pics were too small :(

Thanks guys :)
