A Chest For all My Charms /Trinkets

Good Morning wednesday ive not been around much i seem to have left my Mojo at the hospital after getting my Results on Monday.Whihc now i am being referred to Neurologist Consultant as they think highly likely i have MS.So that would explain my loss of sight rt eye and since Sunday loss of the use of my left arm and down my lft side of face .Anyways only have until 12th May to wait!
Thank heavens i was able to craft after last weeks post when you all saw my charms and trinkets .I needed something to hold them in so .I had an old chest which didnt really like was going to through out......So i altered the design on it so i changed it!Instead of throwing away my scrasps paper used them too recycled 2 into one..lol
I painted with gesso first after sanding down then painted with Kaiser Egg Shell paint .
Used scraps designer paper torn with friskas's edgy ruler. Randomly stuck onto my box.
I then got some tiles and distressed with inks to add to the front .I had this lovely handmade rose i received in a RAK i added to the front.

I then used up some ribbon and stuck that down using my cordless glue gun...whihc is a godsend!
I then added Cracklepaint to the top of the box .Completely let it dry /crackle
Then i inked over the crackled surface with distress inks old paper and Antique linen.Then used dry baby wipe to reveal the image.Have stamped and inked around the design papers and edges.
This is what i designed the box for...


Rather alot i know i just collect hoard !
So now they are all nicely in one place.


Tuesday Through Down:Anything but a Card

Anyway what better way to spend your wednesday's crafting and bloggin being nosey seeing what everyone is upto this week.So if you want to join in or find out more about WOYWW pop over to the Stamping Ground where the boss M/S Dunnit will explain all .
Thanks for all the kind comments i made it through most except for some that blogger were either playing up or was just being pig headed and didnt want me to see..lol.
Well this was my desk last night and this morning.I am at the moment creating a configuration box of MR T's .I was actually sorting through my bits to see what i maybe able to use.Really you dont realise how much you have until you start rummaging. The above piccy is my desk and the following piccys are close up's so you will be able to see all my wee bits and pieces.

This piccy is my over flowing box i keep them in Well one of them havent showed you the other!.So i have now started to paint well sunday a wee chest to keep them in.Hopefully that will be completed next week so i can show you.

Here's a close up of some of my wee treasures.Top rt hand corner i have my creative bits sewing machine cotton reel,scissors and maniqune(dont think thats how you spell it..lol)you now what i mean.Next to them you will see this wee beautiful chest that opens so havent yet made my mind up whats going in there yet but so cute!shame to use...thats my problem love these trinkets so much dont want to use them im daft sod ! Then have some trees with birds and a lovely fairy door near the moon some clock faces .

Heres some more wee goodies the birdcages finally found some !yep so i am defo going to incorporate one after seeingall those lovely displays from Tims crafting sessions in the Uk few weeks ago.


This lot more clock faces this time you can see them more clearly.
Wee bottles,skeleton keys butterflys,sentiment charms.
so not much going on just sorting through my wee bits so i can plan each wee box .
I did also manage yesterday to amke a card and paint photo frame and my chest box .So i didnt waste a day drooling over my charms and trinkets.
