I am always saving things from old wrappers, gift bags to tins and boxes. So when I order my tea from one of my company’s, I knew I wanted to alter one of these amazingly sturdy boxes. And what better than to make it into a gift for someone special.

This box transformed over a few days. From working on the initial base of the box to making the eco-print muslin pillows for the compartments, to the actual outside of the box. I hope you enjoy a few close-ups.
