RECREATING - TREASURE BOX

Detail of grey velvet treasure box. Grey velvet trousers and sweet papers under a layer of organza, stitched and trimmed to recover a choclate box. Red beads, red rose trim and a gold roseshaped bead were used to decorate the scrap of fabric which covers this box.
Central panel cross-

stitched by Diane Powell for my birthday card a very long time ago.

I couldn't bear to throw it out and reused it to cover this treasure box..
