I’ve used a papier mache box, also from Hobbycraft sale – 49p and a black Promarker pen to colour the base sides and lid. I also coloured the edge of the lid just in case there are any gaps between the Beadz.
To give the box an aged look, I’ve used Ranger Distress Crackle Paint (clear Rock Candy) to give it a crackled effect, it’s the first time I have used it and am very impressed.
