Store your private goodies in a keepsake box

Store your private goodies in a keepsake box

Supplies
  • Chalk paint
  • Cold glue
  • Paintbrushes
  • Sealer/podge
  • Wooden box
  • Vintage stamps/gift cards or tags


Step 1
Lay out the stamps on the lid of the box and take a picture for reference (step 3)


Step 2
Paint the box and lid with 2 or more layers of chalk paint. Let the paint dry between layers.


Step 3
Paint a small area with cold glue (I thinned mine with a little water in a glass jar) and glue the stamps using your reference photo.
*I did the top third and then the bottom third of the lid, finishing in the middle.
*Use a thin layer of glue to prevent the stamps from wrinkling.
Fill in gaps with smaller stamps if needed.


Step 4
Finish the lid and box with 2 layers of sealer, painting each layer at right angles. Let dry between layers.


Final
Now your memory box is ready to store all your fondest trinkets.
