Exploding Box

Just thought I would upload the pics of an exploding box I have been working on. I have always wanted to try one of these and decided that I would do one as an sample product for my shop. For anyone who is unsure what an exploding box is...its an album in a box..when you remove the lid the sides drop down revealing the images inside.

This image is of the outside of the box.



The following pictures are the inside pages, once the lid has been removed.

























I am really pleased with how this has turned out, but then I think anything with pictures of my kids is fabulous

2007 ~ New Year ~ New Beginnings

Well here we are in 2007 - I feel the years are moving quicker than me, it seems like we have no sooner cheered in the New Year and 'puff' its gone and its time to wave it goodbye.

As 2007 is going to be a year of change for me, I have decided to try and keep track of it in some way, hence this blog.

As I mentioned 2007 is going to bring many change for me, as the year begins I am about to realise a dream I have had for many years and open my own craft shop...I am patiently awaiting the keys to the premises and when I actually have them in my hand, then I feel the year will truly begin for me, the problems involved in getting into the premises belong to the year gone by..so I will not go into detail, suffice to say I should receive my keys soon and then "The Craft Box" will officially exist..and will no longer just be a pile of boxes and display racks that have overtaken my house.

So I look forward to 2007 and hopefully when I look back on this year I will be able to say, I took all this year had to offer and then some.
