Creating Decorative Boxes with markers, paint and coloured pencils

                   Creating Decorative Boxes


                                         Lets have fun with markers. Start your design with a pencil sketch on a small                                                                                        pizza box. 
                                                 Find your center by making an X and take it from there!



Here are some colourful possibilities

Creating a design on something that would go to landfill makes a good recycle project.
This box can become a gift box for someone you love
 or you can  use it to organize your things around the house.

Have fun with cwarm and cool colours.
Yello and Purple
Blue and Orange
Red and Green
Light and dark colours side by side
Whatever you feel

endless possibilities

Flowers are a fun design for Spring


I decided to leave white areas. It's all up to you!


X marks the center

These will make pretty gift boxes for someone!

I used fine line markers.
I am working on a larger box this time
It's fun to work with lines.. I love texture.



You can use whatever markers you have available.
