Before and After Shoe Box

unapam · **Posted: 30-08-2009 , 04:44 PM** #1

I had been storing my stash of ribbons in two old shoe boxes which did not look too attractive on my shelves. I had found some scraps of old, 1950's (Kildare Wallpaper) in a derelict house. There was just enough to cover these two boxes and now they look great on display. I covered a seam with pink trim and then trimmed the whole lid with vintage lace.

Good idea! Ya know, I have lots of storage boxes that I hide around the place, and it would be much better if I could display them... now I can! Thanks Unapam!!
