#G45DarkSide: Steampunk Jewelry Box & Halloween Pop-up Book

Hello, G45ers!

 Happy Halloween! We are here with two #G45DarkSide challenge projects by Brand Ambassadors Olga Heldwein and Tati Scrap. First up, Olga shares a Steampunk Jewelry Box highlighting our Metal Staples. These embellishments are the perfect thing to spice up all variety of trinkets you may have around, as evidenced by this fun box. The copper wire is a fun touch as well. Next up, Tati Scrap shares her Hallowe’en in Wonderland – Deluxe Collector's Edition pop-up book. This pop-up book features tons of beautiful custom pop up designs within and a variety of exciting embellishments on the exterior to create the perfect package. Check both out below. 

 

 

Steampunk Jewelry Box

By Olga Heldwein

Cigar boxes and gift boxes make excellent jewelry boxes.  Just add design paper, ink, and Staples metal embellishments to bring it all together.  Adding some gold ink really adds a polished touch, and gives this piece a steampunk edge. 

 

Tip: Stack metal embellishments to add depth and dimension.
