All the boxes were so pretty. I loved the wedgewood. Stunning. Have a blessed day🤗
Thanks so much Rosemary. I hope you have a blessed day, too. I am working on my next video and hoping to start another tomorrow. I am trying to have an extra one ready so I don't feel so rushed sometimes. I think you will love the next one coming up.
I'm in love, I love this type of crafts and especially if someone gifts them to me. Love homemade gifts
Thank you for sharing.
Thanks so much Magali for watching. I went thrifting today and found some more of those book looking boxes. That will be a fun project too. Have a great week!
I agree with Darlene-they are ALL my favorite!
Thanks so much. I am working on my next video and am so excited for you to see it. I think you will love it.
I can't say which one is my favorite! I'd love to have any of them, and your niece will love hers 😍 thank you and have a blessed day 🙏🌼🌷🌻
Thanks so much Kimberly for watching. Yes, I am excited to give her the box. Have a blessed week!
All are so beautiful, but my favorite is the bridal box!❤️
Thanks so much sweet friend. I like the colors on the Bridal box. I thought about sharing a pic of my wedding but I sure looked different then. I am working hard on a new video and hoping to get another one started tomorrow. I have started keeping the girls 3x a week for the summer. Whew, less time to craft and sleep until after Labor Day. I am definitely going to need a trip to Knoxville for a vacation this summer. Love you
I love them all but yes the wedgewood is my favorite!!!
Thanks so much friend. I want to do a new blue themed video and I “may” have started to get things together for it. Have a fantastic day 💕
All 3 boxes are beautiful. I love the bridal box. I love Wedgewood, soooo that one is very pretty. Your niece will love her box. ❤
Thanks Margaret for being a loyal subscriber. It was fun making all of them. Have a great week 💕💕💕
@@farmfreshdesigns59 you are most welcome. We southerners must stick together. 😊🥰
@@margaretdillinger5090 so true.
My favorite is definitely the blue and white! Very pretty!
Thanks so much Deborah. I think it’s going to stay at my house and not my vendor booth for sale. Have a fabulous week💕💕💕
All those boxes turned out so pretty Myra!!! Of course I loved the garden box because of the rustic feel to it lol, I also love those seed packets with the thread spools!! Great video!! 😊💖
Hey Shelley, thanks so much. I’ve got a video I’m working on that has some things you might like. It involves burlap. But, shhh…don’t tell. I want to show how to make the spools soon. I didn’t want the video too long so I’ll do that soon. Have a fabulous day!💕💕💕
Favorite Wedgewood box.
Me, too. I like the other ones but gracious, the Wedgewood just speaks to me. Have a great weekend.
They are all beautiful, but that “Wedgewood” box is my favorite. Anything Cameo or cherub, are my favorites
Hey Theresa, thanks so very much. I have a cameo ring that I don’t wear anymore. But with paint and glue as part of my wardrobe all the time, I only wear rings to church. I’m hoping my granddaughters will treasure one day. Hope you have a wonderful week 💕💕💕
They are ALL my favorite! Beautiful!
Thanks so much Darlene. I do love the way they all turned out. Have a fabulous week!
Myra, I like all the boxes. I'm actually working on cigar boxes now. Turning them into sewing boxes for my Mom and Sister. These are great and they're so versatile. Look forward to next video. Take care😊
Hello sweet friend. Oh that’s sounds awesome. Those will be such sweet gifts. Thanks for watching 💕💕💕
I really like your uses of cigar boxes . A very close friend of mine made purses out of cigar boxes. She lined the inside with pretty cloth and put hinges and a latch on the to, if they didn't have them. Also she attached a shoulder strap/chain to carry the purse. She sold them on commission at a large department store.
One of my viewers mentioned she made them, too. I think they are so classy and elegant looking. I hope you have a fabulous week💕
They're all nice boxes! My favorite was the Wedgewood Box. I have one piece that was given to me from my parents. It's a little ornament that is special.
Oh Sabricia, that is so sweet. I do not have any but was inspired by a viewer. Those things our parents give us are so special. Have a fabulous week!
I love them all but I think the Wedgewood was my favorite. Congratulations on you 1 month anniversary
Thanks so very much💕💕💕
I love them all Myra. ❤ Much love from Texas ❤🤠
Thanks Sandy so much for being a loyal subscriber. Have a wonderful day 💕💕💕
My favorite is the seed box. I actually have a bunch of wood cigar boxes I need to get to work on. Maybe this will inspire me.
Oh Becky, I hope you got some good ideas today. There are so many ways to decorate them. Have a fabulous week!
Beets. Love them.
Awesome, I love fresh ones but love any kind of beets. Have a great evening 💕
I love the wedgwood box!! It's gorgeous!
Thanks so much Cass. I don't think I will be able to part with that one. Have a great week!
@@farmfreshdesigns59 I would definitely keep and display prominently!
Absolutely gorgeous,i love them all❤
Thanks so very much 💕💕💕
They are all beautiful!
Thanks Jennie so much💕💕💕
Love the seed box!
Thanks so much. I cannot wait to give it to my niece. Have a great week.
Another fabulous video, Myra! All three boxes turned out so beautifully, but I would have to say the Wedgwood box is my favorite! It truly looks like Wedgwood! I just picked up some old boxes from the thrift store to redo, so I may be stealing some of your ideas! 😊 Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Oh thanks Lori. I think the best compliment is that it really does look like Wedgewood. Steal away friend. I know yours will turn out beautiful. You have a great weekend, too.
I use to collect China tea cups. My favorite were ones are with small flowers inside the cup to give you a extra surprise when you drank your (coffee) . The old Gift Corner in Kannapolis had wonderful selections. Also years ago I found a china store in Pidgeon Forge and picked up others.
Oh Lynda, don't you just love those little touches. Years ago, I would go to Kannapolis to the Cannon Mill Outlet store. I have not been up there since they added the baseball stadium. I hear it is gorgeous up there. There is also a place on the other side of Greensboro called Replacements where you can find china, but it is not thrift shop store prices.
@@farmfreshdesigns59 Ive been to the Replacement store, I was looking for a Faulstgraft pattern with garden tool images and flowers. Cant find them.
The bridal box is my favorite. It is so romantic and beautiful! I love the Wedgwood one, too, but something about the bridal box touches me. Thanks for sharing all three with us. You are so talented! Enjoyed!
Thanks so much Sarah. Yes, it is romantic. My granddaughter loves princess stories and likes to dress up like one. She may steal this box when she sees it. Have a great week!
These boxes are all stunning. I can’t pick a favourite but I really love the one with the vegetables on. I just did a box for my granddaughter but it certainly didn’t look like one of yours. I was very disappointed in mine, I don’t have much space to make anything and it looked pretty amateurish to me but she loved it. It was harder than I imagined with a tiny bit of space. I live with my grandson and he doesn’t own a dining table so I couldn’t even use that space. I guess the more I do the better they will look though. I didn’t have much confidence or many items to put on there. I did enjoy making it though, and my clay pieces worked out lovely. I used roses as that is her name. I love the idea of a wedding box, it’s beautiful but unfortunately the only good memory I’d put it in is my divorce papers, as it was the happiest day of my life, that’s a bit sad isn’t it lol, but it’s true.
Hello friend, when we craft with love, it’s always perfect. I’m hard on myself, too. I’m glad your clay turned out well and how appropriate. It will be a life long treasure for her. And who knows, she may follow in your footsteps and become a crafter. I hesitated about mentioning marriage memorabilia as I know not everyone is married. I had a cheap little bracelet my mom bought me when I was young. Amazingly it didn’t turn green. I wore it on my wedding day and passed it to my daughter the day she married. I did a scrapbook a few years back with my wedding pics and such. So all my little things are in that. I hope you have a awesome week. I’m working on my next video and super excited. I think you’ll like it. Sending a hug to you sweet friend 💕💕💕
Oh Myra, I love all of these! My niece just got married last month so I don’t think it’s too late to make her one. I just need to find a box! The hunt is on! Have a marvelous Monday! ❤
That would be perfect. I’m sure you can find a box at the thrift stores. This one was not deep though. It would only work for cards and little things. Have a fabulous day!💕💕💕
The wedgewood blue box
Thanks so very much for watching. Yes, I love that box. I’ll keep that at my house and not take to my vendor booth. Have a fabulous week💕💕💕
That transfer is from ReDesign with Prima "Vintage Seeds" transfer.
Amber, Yay!!!!!! Thank you so much. I unfortunately threw the tube away and have not researched it. It has the best colors in that transfer. Have a fabulous week!
My fav is the bridal box followed by the seed box. My question is this…I got some wooden cigar boxes. But they had shiny embossed paper glued on them from the cigar manufacturer. I tried to get the paper off and in the process, the boxes absorbed some water and would no longer close properly. Even the water from the paint did that. How do you avoid that problem? I would love to use cigar boxes because I enjoy making special boxes as gifts.
Oh gosh Lisa, that is the biggest struggle. I won't say I have the right answer but when I am painting them, I try to keep the lid closed as much as I can, so the hinges don't get stretched out too much. When you are painting the parts that touch when it closes, just use one very light coat of paint. And the extra paper, argh!! I use a paint scraper very carefully to get it off. I have sometimes used a double layer of paper towels that is wet and let it just sit on the paper. Sometimes it helps to soften the glue enough to get it off. And if it still shows through, you could add some texture to the paint by adding some baking soda. But I don't have an easy answer. Have a fabulous day!
@@farmfreshdesigns59 thank you so much for the ideas! And for validating it’s an ongoing g problem and not just me! 🤪. I appreciate you! Great tutorial.
@@lisachiboroski9930 or…we could contact the cigar box maker and tell them they are making it hard on crafters. 😂😂😂.
@@farmfreshdesigns59 now you’re onto something! 🤣🙌🏻👏🏻😎
@@lisachiboroski9930 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Do you ever leave the cigar paper that comes in the box. I have two that are so pretty I hate to remove it.
@@laurendodson6779 thanks for watching. No I bought these at an estate sale to diy. At the time, I had a vendor booth and they sell better with the paper removed. Have a great weekend 💕
Where do you find cigar boxes?
I have found them before at thrift shops. One of my friends had an estate sale and she had a lot of them and sold them to me for a good price. Thanks so much for watching.
