So this Christmas we are doing the same, my niece and nephew from up north are unfamiliar with the game, I bet they will like it.
I had purchased this box about 20 years ago and was waiting for a vision, then after playing the game and being a big fan of MacKenzie- Childs I decided to use patterns and colors and I like the way it came out.
This is the box in progress...
Now I want to do a painting for Emilys room, it has wonderful light and I got coverlets that have great colors, my sister has a painting I love, the the artist used day glow paint and it serves as a night light, I am thinking textures and colors and patterns, so my mind is working... on to the next project.
