Matchbox Shrines

Cute little shrines for everyone !

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/matchbox-shrines • Posted by JamO

I made these little matchbox shrines for a swap, but really enjoyed putting them together. The great thing is you can use just about anything you might have left over in your craft drawer. Some shrines slide in and out of the box, I decided to make my a tri-fold box with ribbon closures so that the box opens up nicely and all sides are visible. I used images, little flowers, milagros, charms, sequins, glass bevels, ribbon, charms, religious medals and paints.
