Let's Do Lunch Tool Box

Due to my illness, I lack projects to put on my blog, so I thought I'd share my PTI GSS entry for this month a bit early. I'll have some new stuff soon and I'll show you all the cool stuff my Secret Sister sent me!

This is my modified version of the My Timeless Template Let's Do Lunch. When I saw the lunch box template, I saw a tool box. It was really easy to make this modification and I think it turned out cute. My kids love carrying little buckets of crayons around the house or they grab a bucket and a coloring book when we have to be in the car for awhile. This tool box easily supports the weight of 24 crayons. I made 2- 2x2 cube inserts to hold the crayons up for easy reach. The dowel is painted with True black and Vintage cream ink using a sponge dauber. I used flat washers to support the dowel and I used rubber washers to hold the dowel in place. I used my Scor Pal to add dimension to my front panel and distressed it with summer sunrise and vintage cream ink.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!
