updated photo box.

When I first saw this photo box at a thrift store, I knew I could re-make it into a perfect Christmas gift for my almost-niece Ally.


I took it all apart. The silver frame got a coat of black spray paint, the top and sides got several coats of pink craft paint that I had on hand, and I topped the ugly felt interior with scrapbook paper.

My favorite part, though, is Ally's name on the bottom. I used the method described here to transfer it, then colored it in with a black permanent marker.
