I painted another book box, this time with space themes. The sides are in metallic silver, and I put snaps on the front/top of the box to help keep it securely closed - an extra measure better than the little magnet built in. Star studs decorate the ends of the straps. There’s also black glittery felt lining the inside for the sake of rolling dice or cushioning jewelry or other little knickknacks.
I’d like to put this on my Etsy, but I’d need to find a good shipping box for it so I can put in accurate dimensions for said shipping. I should probably also try to find a better place to take photos so that it doesn’t pick up as much surrounding color - all the green tinted it a little bit in the photos, and the spine doesn’t have any warm brown or other colors - that’s pure bounce light.
