.......and I'm thinking of doing a bit of altering!  Does anyone fancy joining me in an "Alter a box" challenge to keep me on track and inspired to actually do something with this box before it gets shoved intpo a cupboard?  _________________ Adele. http://www.dillydallydingle.blogspot.comStampin Up!

Sounds good. what will you use your altered boxes for? I am needing to make one for 2 Christmas decorations I have and also for some jewellery for my friend's birthday. I might join you on this challenge....when I have potted up my plants and planted some more seeds.  _________________ Kath Kath's Blog

It's amazing what jumps into empty boxes in this house!  _________________ Kath Kath's Blog

We have just got some new bedroom furniture and I now have some room on my bedside cabinet for some "pretties." It might be nice to have a little box I could pop my junk into. A bit of costume jewellery, my lavender oil, at the moment I am using a lot of Olbas oil too as I am so heady and congested....just all the stuff that accumulates! Ages ago I also brought some little mannequins that I had intended to alter. _________________ Adele. http://www.dillydallydingle.blogspot.comStampin Up!

I have just blogged my boxes! Here they are;   The purple Gok box is quite big, thinks I should attempt the smaller one first!  _________________ Adele. http://www.dillydallydingle.blogspot.comStampin Up! Demonstrator for Medway, Kent and wherever life takes me!

Oooh, those are lovely boxes, Adele. I was thinking in terms of a Daz box or a discarded plain box! I shall have to make a box to fit my decorations though! Still planting. I have planted about 80 freesia plants and abot 60+ stock plants (I love the smell of stocks).I am now going to sow poppy seeds and Calendula plus a few mystery seeds from my son's GF 's plant. I had to stop to see the names of the horses for the race this afternoon so I could bet!! Just once a year I do this and I pick randomly. I don't do anything clever like study form or find the name of the jockey! _________________ Kath Kath's Blog

Me and Amelia started some altered art today! LOL, I decided not to dive straight in with my lovely boxes but try out some ides with a few smaller projects. Has anyone else started yet? _________________ Adele. http://www.dillydallydingle.blogspot.comStampin Up! Demonstrator for Medway, Kent and wherever life takes me!

No. Can't seem to get myself moving in the craft direction at the moment. Mojo buried in the garden I think!
