Instructions in 9 steps The light-coloured wooden box gets that special vintage look when applying the Chalky Finish cream wax on it by means of the painting sponge brush. Cork cuttings and silver glittered ribbon enhance the whole. And this is how it works:

Step 1

Place the cuttings as follows: 63 031 … cork fabric silver / gold 1 × 15.4 cm × 10.7 cm
63 016 000 cork fabric granules: 1 × 1.5 cm × 38 cm, 1 × 1.5 cm × 16 cm

Step 2

Wipe the entire box with a painting sponge and Chalky Finish cream wax and leave out the top of the lid.

Step 3

Then paint the top of the lid with the desired contrast colour, white or burgundy.

Step 4

Punch the stars, with the aid of the star template, out of the cork cuttings, granulated in silver/gold by using the Sizzix-machine.

Step 5

Afterwards, cover up the cutting with the cork glue on the lid of your wooden box.

Step 6

Now wipe the both granulate cork cuttings with the Chalky Finish (white or burgundy) by using the sponge.

Step 7

Once the cuttings are dry, stick them onto the sides around the box by using the double-sided adhesive tape.

Step 8

Stick the glitter ribbon and the cord on the cutting by using the double-sided adhesive tape.

Step 9

Cover up or glue the remaining loose stars onto the top of the box.
