28th Nov 2023...hi Sam, I've been wanting to make a couple of these for a few weeks for my grand daughters....finally finished my last project and I'm part way thro the bureau. I decided to do a prototype to see how I got on. I think I'm doing ok but, just want to point out...where you said you'd cut your paper wrong and we need to cut 9 x 6 (for the sides)...my practice box is being done with 1mm grey board and 9 x 6 only just curls over top and bottom. I don't think it will wrap round 2mm...this is to maybe help others making it and so you k ow. I love your demos...they are clear and easy to follow...I've made quite a few of your gift bags the last being diamond gift bag in chrissy papers. You are so talented and thank you x
I've never written to you, but absolutely love your channel. I have my own channel for disabled crafters, and have mentioned your site on numerous occasions...Thanks so much for always coming up with fresh and wonderful ideas. Sandy
Sam, your box is positively beautiful, as are all your creations. I noticed on your blog that it says you are living in China with your husband. I hope that you are safe and well. Reports are so scary now. Take care of yourself, and thank you for sharing all of your beautiful projects with us.💕💕
I love these ideas. I am redoing my craft studio and I need something like this for my desk. Thanks for sharing. Happy crafting on a budget. Happy everything on a budget. See you in the next video and on the flip side. stay safe, be happy, be kind. 😇🌹💖
Wow your so talented. Love your creation, it's beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see it finished with the dividers. Thanks for sharing. God bless you..
Thank you Sam that was a great tutorial, easy to follow and so clear. I have made a Bureau Box with your instructions but my lid doesn't lay down very well so I must have done something wrong but I am pleased with what I have achieved. Now for the dividers. A great project.
Hi Susan, I think you may have done what I did. Re-watching it for the zillionth time I think this may be the problem...When Sam measures the cutting angles for the sides she is measuring 4 inches from the corner of the long side which will be REMOVED,, whereas she measures the short side's corner at 3 inches which will be KEPT.. I do hope thiis may help..Jo x
Loved watching this. So funny though when you say it looks like a cottage. You then put your finger on the Rose. Lol. Rose Cottage. I am gong to attempt this soon too.
Oh Samantha that is just fabulous ! I wish I could go to my craft room this minute and start making that beautiful bureau. I’m recovering well from my back surgery. Doing everything I was told .... unusual for me ! I should make a full recovery. I’m making a list of what I’m going to make when I get back crafting. This project is at the top of my list. Thanks for sharing such a detailed tutorial. I have a voucher for my local craft shop so will be going in to buy the Dovecraft papers. Cheers and thank you.
I just love this. I would like to leave it open so that I could put rulers and scissors and stuff like that on my desk. I can’t wait to try this. I’m looking forward to the dividers. Thank you for sharing. 😊🤗
This is going to be totally involved, I can't wait. I really love how you talk about taking a step back at times. I do that too and I'm glad I'm not alone.
I haven't done any of your chipboard boxes, yet, but I think this may be the first. I'll likely try to decorate is as a slant-front desk, to maybe match my antique Davenport desk! I love it, Sam. Thank you for the tutorial!
I just came upon your channel a few days ago, and I love your projects. I grabbed a cuppa and have been sitting here just watching with a smile on my face. Gorgeous storage box. Looking forward to the dividers tutorial as I too have a bunch of flowers that need to be sorted out. I tried to get these papers but they were sold out so now I will have to go through my stash to find some beautiful coordinating papers. Thank you so much for sharing. Easy to follow tutorial. Love it! ~ Lena xxx
I am now going to make it as I was looking for one. Your explanation makes it simple it simple.i just cudnt understand one me sure mentioned. I will try it and see how it comes.tc stay safe
Suggestion when cutting down a screw is to put a nut on first and run it all the way down to the head of the screw so when you back it off after cutting the threads off it will help smooth out the burrs you can get from cutting the screw making it easier to screw into the female part.
Oh i just love this, I love any type of handmade storage boxes, so this right up my ally. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful ideas. Love your channel and looking forward to more tutorials for this project and all of your projects.
I Loooove IT! Perfect for my card files I’m planning for gifts!!! Just the kind of crafting I used to do w my dads gray cardboard that came from his dry cleaned shirts!!
I absolutely love this box and the paper is SO feminine and gorgeous. Thank you for the tutorial, I know it's a lot of work on your part! I have been searching for a box but have decided I'll have to make it myself to hold my handmade A2 cards and make dividers.
I must have watched this tutorial half a dozen times, I really need to pluck up the courage to give it a go! Though every time you say “ it’s at this point my mom says she’s gets a sweat on” always makes me chuckle because I do exactly the same. Thanks for being a wonderful designer Sam! You inspire us all. 🥰🥰🥰
Love, love, love it. I will be making this. Unfortunately I went to buy the Paper Posies paper pad from Craft Stash and they were sold out. I will find another beautiful paper to use though. Great idea using the glass knob, it will also help the lid stay down due to the weight of it. Can't wait for the next video for dividers.💕
OMG What a beautiful storage/gift box its absolutely stunning I will definitely be making this thanks for sharing your lovely craft projects always look forward to what you are making next and you never disappoint us!
So cute!!!! I need mine in a different size (some place to store my glue and other tall bottles), but the tutorial is so clear and easy to understand that I'm totally going to give it a go. Thanks for sharing!!!!
What an amazing box.. I can’t wait to try it. I’m thinking Christmas presents...I better start now. Lol. Thank you for all the hard work you did to create this for us crafters, I’m sure it took a lot of time to create. Thank You.
Beautifully done. Thank you for such detailed instructions, with all the tips along the way. At some point, I hope to get up the nerve to try my hand at making this. (I’m a newbie, so it may take a minute). Big xoxo’s 💞, Robbin.
I So love this project! This turned out absolutely beautiful. It took me a while though and The next time I make it, I will defimostly pack a lunch!😁 I can't wait to try another 1 of your projects I don't think it will be as challenging as this one. I'm so happy I made it. Thank you for sharing.
This is just beautiful!! I have one stationery came in from years ago, this is deeper and more fabulous. I have never done this before, but oh I am going to make one...I had grayboard and got rid of it, didn't follow you then! Thank you so much. I too tried to buy the papers but they are all out just now, so I will use other 12 x 12 papers.
What a beautiful storage box, love it. I was on the same wave length as you when you faced the front of the box to camera, how cute would it look as a cottage. Great minds think alike. Thanks for sharing. Xx
Love this Sam! I need storage in my new craft room. Some birthday cards to do first and then if I'm feeling good about those I might just have enough confidence to give this a try 🤞. Thanks for another great idea xx
Wow, this is genius Sam and I’ve just received a grey board order from Amazon. Another project on my to do list, thank you for your inspiration and superb tutorials xx
WOW, Gorgeous, i will be making this for my Sons Fiancé, Just need the papers to arrive from craft stash, in the meantime I will prep all the grey board. So excited to try this. Big hugs, Thank You Sam x
My niece would love this for her new bedroom...thanks so much Sam x
WOW ! THIS IS GREAT!! Thank you...I'm trying to organize my craft goodies, so I'm binge watching all your classes...Have a lovely afternoon...
Sam that was absolutely amazing you do great work just love it
