This is a Christmas gift I made for my sisterish – that’s the nickname my brother-in-law’s girlfriend and I have for each other.  It’s one of my many favorite products…the Ready-To-Go!® Indie File Box.  I never cease to be amazed at how incredibly well our blank board products hold up under a wide variety of mediums.  I wanted this box to look like a real japanese lacquered wood box, so there are 4 coats on there – 2 of the black acrylic paint, 1 mod podge and 1 pale gold wash. Plus there are two coats of modpodge on the inside where I lined it with fabric paper. It turned out beautifully and I can’t wait to make more!!
