instructions
  1. Small Box - 1. Cover the base, inside and out, with delicate shell emulsion. Do the same for the lid in pale taupe. Leave to dry thoroughly. Attach cream grosgrain ribbon around the edge of the lid with double-sided tape, overlapping each end slightly at the top.

    2. Draw a light pencil 4cm circle on the lid. Use the small punch to press out heart shapes, preparing. Arrange and glue them in a ring, placing the centres of each motif on the pencil line. Make one a four-leaf clover from the glitter card.

    3. Decorate the centres of some with pearl half-beads. Tie narrow satin ribbon in a bow. Glue it in the centre.
