This is the box I picked up at the car boot sale - I scraped off the paint - rubbed it down and added firstly a coat of black Gesso then a coat of Copper Acrylic - before it was dry I sprayed on Red Crackle Paint
And this is how it finished after I embellished it
A closer look at the crackle
And the top
And for those who like to have a look - this is what I put inside
Great job Hilda! Didn't it crackle well!
