I first decided that it needed a little wash to remove all the dust it had collected. As I was drying it off I saw that the "paint" was coming off. I had no idea that it was painted! So instead of painting it, I grabbed some nailpolish remover and went to town.
Here's how I did it.
This is actually what is called a Wedding Box. Back in the day, a bride would bring a piece of her wedding cake home in this little box.
Cotton Squares
This is a super simple project and you can find these at almost any thrift store, estate sale, or yard sale. So next time you see one, take a closer look at it....you may have found yourself a little gem in the rough. Let me know if you try this project!
