Cute pen box D.I.Y

So today I went shopping and brought a really inexpensive pen box. I thought I could make it look ALOT nicer and do it for cheap! So I gathered my supplies and got started!

If you want to create a pen box like mine, you will need:

• A box
• Acrylic paint of your choice
• A pot of water
• Paint brush

Optional:

• Fabric/patterned tape
• Glitter (you may need spran on glue for this)
• Paint pallet/plate

How to make a pen box:

1. Start by mixing your paint on the pallet or plate (you may need to add a small drop of water).
2. Then you need to start painting the box. Then let it dry.
3. If your box has cut out shapes for pictures or photographs, you can cover them too! Just take your fabric/patterned tape, or your glitter and glue and cover the shape.  
4. Once your box is finished, you can put pens, make-up brushes or paint brushes in it.

I hope you like this post and pleasecomment if you want more D.I.Y's xx

My First Post

So. I'v decided to start a new blog about (mostly) photography, and there may be a few cute and inspiring D.I.Y's along the way. I also may do a few reviews on books or photographs that I have read or seen.

A couple of years ago, i got a Finepix SL1000 camera for my birthday. Ever since that day I have loved taking pictures of whatever I find 'interesting', such as wildlife, yummy desserts and pretty landscapes.

I'v always wanted to write about the things I do, and start a diary. I have (many times) tried to write an entry everyday, but I couldn't keep it up. I even set it as one of my new years resolutions one year, but always forgot to do it! Then I thought about blogging. I want to share my ideas with people who are into the same thing as me, so I think this will be the perfect thing to do.

Hopefully you will enjoy reading my blog (if anyone has actually been reading up to now) as much as I like writing it! Please comment if you do like this first post and if we have anything in common! Thankyou! xx
