Tissue Box Crazy

     The funny thing about making these tissue box covers is that i laughed when my friend Cindy came out with 5 Boxes for examples and now i'm addicted.  I've made 2 horse boxes for my daughter and her friend and now this winter one that i'm posting. They are just so easy to make and i've been buying $1.00 Scotties brand tissues at the Dollar tree, so they aren't costing much to make and give away. Everyone "NEEDS" one for Christmas this year i think. LOL.
     On this box today i used printed cardstock from a Country Christmas cardstack from Hobby Lobby and i added Spellbinder die Snowflakes.  I also added liquid pearls to the centers of the snowflakes on the box. Very Simple and a lot of fun to make. I'm really struggling to make a craft project everyday right now. I can't get in the mood. Hopefully i'll get started again soon. I'm wondering if my Thyroid is misbehaving again because i'm more concerned with sleep. I hate it when that happens!

  1. Oh, you did laugh, but somehow I knew that if you made one you would make many. And yours will be very artfully designed. I was thinking the same thing that everyone needs one for Christmas. My husband laughed about that, but now I can tell him his favorite artsy crafter is doing the same. You know he loves your work. I love the color combinations on this one.
