3½ days work, 14" x 10". The pics seemed to have drained a bit of colour, it's much deeper in real life. It also has a lovely sheen to it as it's been sealed with mod podge. This is to store all my altered art charms, die and laser cuts and stuff and my Tim Holtz Ideology bits. Done a tutorial for this too which will go on my tute site.

I made it so that there are also 4 larger compartments in the base as well as the 6 on the top shelf.

Thats really great Lorraine, good idea with the lower ones being larger, what kind of card did you use.

Just read your tute, and I have got a fair bit of brown cardboard dividers from the diet chef delivery, so will have a go with that.

This is something else, made in a way that only you can. I f I tried I'm sure there would be one or two sections that just wouldn't quite fit, it's brill. Lots to look out without the wondrous things you'll fill it with.
