Title:final box
Size: around 15 by 15
Medium: materials used to decorate the box include glitter,ribbons, buttons, beads,construction paper,rose,sequins
I did this box to put my polaroid finals in it. It is hand made in and out except for the box. It is handmade as i want to express that it is very precious to me and i treasure it dearly and value it a lot . I made it with love:D It is supposed to be my “treasure box” [miss yap suggested i should have something like a treasure box to store my final:D] which stores my “treasures” (which are my polaroids final- photos of my desires)
the last photo is the proposed box designs i came out with and the fonts to write on the polaroids as well as some of the materials i bought to decorate the box [i chose only some of the materials to decorate in the end]

haha i’ve always liked handmade stuff. even though some LOOK handmade and are actl machine made.but what matters is that personal connection! xD
if you want to do another similar one, i would recommend you um choose more pastel colours? cause im not sure what kind of feeling/direction you’re going for but i thought pastel colours would have the really confortable and pretty feel. good job!!

I really like the whole presentation of your polaroids. I think it is rather unique and you gave it a personal touch with the handmade box. It does look like something you cherish and treasure a lot. I also like your choice of colours I think it’s very feminine, very you heehee. Maybe you could have considered making the box look older and give the pictures an ‘aged’ antique feel to extend on the idea of a ‘treasure box’. I just think that by giving it a bit of ‘age’ it kind of shows how you have been keeping and treasuring these memories.
Nevertheless I think you did a really good job(:
