Altered Boxes



Today I wanted to share with you two little altered boxes I made three weeks ago.


On each lid is a small soldered collage


and inside each time three soldered pendants.


The images inside of the lids are from Catherine Moore's collage sheets!





Welcome all new Followers! Some of you I have easily found - your links /blogs … while some I cannot find a link. Please drop me a line, I'd love to visit your blogs too and explore the magic!

At the moment I'm running behind with visiting your blogs, but I hope to catch up soon.

Thank you so much for stopping by and for all your lovely comments.
I'm wishing you all an artful upcoming weekend!
