Iron Craft 2014 Challenge #12--Handmade Box (Project 24)
 |
| Box Lid and Bottom |
For Iron Craft Challenge12, we were tasked with making something for "HIM." The problem is that I am a HIM which meant that I needed to make something for myself--which I am never very good at doing. I struggled with this challenge because I really didn't need anything.
I thought about sharing an organizing option for my bow tie collection but that wasn't very creative or appropriate. I then thought about my cuff links and how I am always looking for a matching set. I decided to create a shallow box to hold my cuff links. The box will be next to my key tray so I can put the cuff links in the box before sending my shirts to the dry cleaner.
The box is covered with a handmade paper that is infused with flower petals and leaves. Because the paper is so thick it became very difficult to use. Also, because the paper is handmade, there was pilling when turning in the corners. Overall, I am very happy with the way that it turned out.

Project #23--Opening Night Card
 |
| Front |
The back of the card shows the title of the show and the date of Opening Night. There will be translucent vellum as the inside sheet. A battery operated tea light will be offered with the card. The card is pretty stunning when the lights are turned off and the tea light is on.
