Altered Wooden Box!

Howdy all! I saw this cute little unfinished wooden box at M's the other night [for $1!!!] and knew exactly what I was going to use it for. It just so happens Polka Doodles Challenge this week is to 'alter it'!

So here's the wooden box before I took off the gold closure off and began my alterations!Using three different DP's I covered the box and the lid. I used glue dots rather than breaking out the glue gun and they worked VERY well [to my surprise!]! :) I added some 'Got Flowers?' Flowers to the top again with glue dots. I reattached the closure and added the fab pearly ivory ribbon! This is a pic of the new 'altered' box opened. It was a lot easier than I thought and didn't take me very long to alter! I hope you like it too! :) After looking at it in this pics, I added a translucent K & Company butterfly "landing" on the flowers.
Thanks for looking and please leave a comment so I know you were here!
