crafties.

this is my first clamshell box and journal project from over a year ago! i made this one at otis. (excuse the cut on the journal, my bone-folder was too sharp and sliced my beautiful journal's side spine!)

i decided to give it a shot, and try making one on my own, i'm almost done with it-- but this is what i had early morning. 

i attempted making engravings shown on the journal above (leaf cut), but i wasnt too successful because i forgot to put glue on the cardboard end! hmmm....

these are two of the boxes i finished constructing from scrap cardboard i wanted to get rid of. they're still waiting to be covered!

i'm getting a lot better at making these boxes, and i'm a little disappointed with the glitches i make on each one. so far i've made five, but i'm thinking of keeping these slightly imperfect ones-- i really hope to start selling my little crafty paintings, and of course these boxes on etsy. what do you think?? interested?
