How to create an art supplies box using relics wood backs

Recycled wood box, mine has hinges and closure and Relics and Artifacts wood support

These are ancient but the scale of the tiny roses was what I needed

Give a coat of gesso to everything, your choice of white or black

I'm going with white because it goes with the flowers

Add modeling paste and wet on wet add the art stones

Loving the results!

Select your flowers

As you can see I cut away the petals

Begin your assemblage , can you spy the wings ? I used the individual petals to create them

Gesso again

First choice of colors, not the final ones I decided to cover the heart with metallique in teal, it matches the letters and gives a cohesive look

I used inca gold to work on the relief work if the pieces

I finished it with Dresdens around the top portion. To read more about the inspiration behind this piece visit the Muse www.sandraevertson.com
