WOW - this is spectacular - did you add all the trim, etc. as well. Please satisfy our curiousity as to how you put together this work of art - pretty please. Absolutely beautiful.

It was O'So simple to do! Using our O'So Sticky Tape (double sided adhesive) sheets - I completely covered the box. I dumped a bag each of brown translucent, black and gold opaque micro beads into a glass pan. Then peeled off the liners on the bottom edge only and pressed the box into the beads. Then I peeled the liner from the top (side) edge and beaded that black all the way around. Then, on the lid of the box, I used liners to mask off the black border around the window and beaded that black strip. Then mixed all the beads in the pan together, removed all the liners and pressed the lid into the mixed beads. Gold trim was added to the top after beading (if I did it again, I would put the gold trim onto the adhesive BEFORE beading) and then the dangly beaded trim (purchased pre-beaded!) was added around the edges with Sure Tac glue. Stamped the image to put in the frame and ta-da! Glad you liked it!
