DIY Jewelry box Tutorial



Step 1

Image

Materials:
You will need:
*Acrylic paint
*Brushes
*A wooden box
* Varnish
* Pencils (one B and one HB)
* A black Sharpie ( regular one)
* A small ruler
* And finally your geometric pattern. I did mine using InDesign and printing it.

Step 2

Use your HB pencil and turn your pattern. Color the area where the pattern is.

Step 3

Once you got you stencil ready you’ll need some tape. I like this Scotch one that isn’t too sticky. That way you won’t have glue over you box.

Step 4

Image

Once you put your stencil and taped it to the wooden box, you’ll need your H pencil and a ruler. Trace the pattern with a nicely sharpened pencil. Remove the stencil when you’re done.

Step 5

Paint the triangles with the colors you’ve chosen. Then when they are all dry use the Sharpie to trace the lines. Finally use some varnish to give it a nice finish. Enjoy your new cute box!!!
