Mini Christmas Shrine

You've caught me still working on a project, but this is how its looking so far!

Its a thimble case that I am altering by putting Christmassy items in it. 

I sanded it down, gessoed it and covered it in gold paint.  So far I have only managed to paint the outside frames but I have plans to cover the inside pages with various Christmassy papers, stamped images, words, etc.  Its a 'do where my inspiration takes me' project.  I have put some objects in the boxes now to see what type of objects will work in my finished masterpiece.

Thanks for looking and any comments,
See you tomorrow,

I like the look of this! I will keep my little eyes peeled for something similar, a 12 days of Christmas would be nice with the 12 little cubbyholes. Now where you would find a minature partridge I am not sure, or leaping lords, actually forget it I hadn't thought that through :)

Thanks crafters. Lol, Kandi, it might have worked if you had teeny weeny miniature figures. Thank you Linda, I do like to inspire. x
