This is going to be my Mother's Day gift this year. Not this box exactly. This box I made using the directions I was given so I could see how it would turn out. After a bit of wrangling and remeasuring I came up with it. I used patterned paper to decorate it to keep as a pattern for future boxes. The Mother's Day box will have photos of the family.

Lynne, Lynne!!! I LOVE IT!! Where did you find the directions for it? I would love to do something like this.....
Kenda, I scanned the directions yesterday, but haven't had time to go through and make sure it's correct. I'll do that in the next day or so and send them on to you. I should have just scanned it, but I used the OCR program and it makes mistakes when it doesn't read a character correctly. Plus I'll add tips of my own that should help. The 2nd box was SO much easier to make.

Thank you!! I love the box, what can I say, but you did a wonderful job on it. I really liked the water paper and the shell.
Great idea and photo box Lynne.

Lynne, Would you mind posting the directions to the newsgroup. I would really like to give this a try, too. It's such a neat project. Sandy
Lynne, What a neat box - I would say "there is more to this box than meets the eye". I love the shells too.

I agree, I'd love to try it too, if you don't mind posting the directions. :)
