Second Upcycled chocolate covered cherries box

I started with another chocolate covered cherries box, I kept the lid on this one, and reinforced the entire box with sturdy cardboard.  I then wrapped the entire box with old sketch paper to keep the cardboard in place. I painted the entire box with pink tinted gesso.

I glued beaded fringe on the edge of the sides and front of the lid.

 

I had a watercolor that I had painted that was pretty, but just not very interesting on it’s own. I cut the painting up to fit on the sides and lid of the box. I glued the watercolor onto the box using mod-podge. After the watercolor was in place I painted on it using black ink and acrylics. 
My idea for the design was pearls and ribbons, but I’m not sure if that is how it turned out. I do like it though.
