(I failed to take a before picture... let's just say the thing was the old tarnished gold with rust spots! But a $4 deal at my local flea market.)
(This is the part where I got mad and sanded it off for the second time!)
Now... the transformation...
Added a ribbon and an old skeleton key to the top...
Stickers from a scrapbook pad and then covered over with a few coats of Mod Podge...
(I chose the word 'beloved' for the top because that's what Amy means :) )

Okay, so I LOVE words that mean something... so I just started putting them wherever there was missing paint or bubbles/wrinkles...
(I couldn't get the stickers perfectly flat since they were on a curved surface, but I feel like the wrinkling gives character- more so than the wrinkled paint!)
Side 1:
This is my finished project in all it's glory! I'm going to use it to hold my jewelry :)! I'm super happy with the end result, especially considering how frustrated I was with the spray paint!
Go check out everyone else!
Very cute! I love the idea for using it to hold jewelry!! I saw you over on Tatertots & Jello Weekend Wrap-Up!
