The crowned one

Blue fusion, those are great boxes!
 

Promise

I am in awe! Such beautiful crafting!

Have you ever considered selling these on etsy or a similar site? I really think you'd have success with it. I know I would be very tempted to invest in a few!

You've all made beautiful boxes. blue_fusion, thank you for the tutorial.

I'm getting inspirational ideas for my two decks that haven't got boxes now...

Abso-frigging-lutely beautiful!!!!! If my box-making skills approach even 1/10 the level of beauty of your boxes, I will be one happy camper.

With 400 decks in my collection and my present skill level of box-making, it'll be a long, long time before I get anywhere near having more boxes than decks!:laugh:

i think you'll manage. the celtic-y pattern i emailed you is the one in the "rohan" box. :) AND do share the pics of your creations!

blue_fusion,

As soon as I make something that's more than utilitarian, I'll definitely share. Right now everything I'm making is a "learning experience." ;)

Wow! These boxes are great creative pieces of art. I love them!:heart: Some of the links didn't work for me but the ones I did see are amazing. Are there any other tutorials on these?
