IAR Sewing Kit Bento Box

I wanted to create a special gift for Rina. Rina had celebrated her birthday and I know how much she loves Musubi. I thought how fun would it be to create a sewing kit in a Bento Box and have her favorite Musubi as the pin cushion. I just love the Devotion collection by Creative Imaginations and it was perfect for this project for her. I used Tim Holtz's Configurations box and created my own Bento Box to fit all the embellishments inside. I painted the boxes with one of her favorite Metallic Sequin Black acrylic paint from FolkArt and then adhered the design papers. I went to my LSS Green Tangerines and found some wonderful Asian embellishments to add to her box. I just love the Japanese chopsticks. You can't have a Bento Box without chopsticks!!! heehee The adorable toothpicks which I had also found at GT was perfect to add to the pin cushion as well. The IAmRoses flowers that I incorporated were so beautiful and were perfect for Rina's box. Happy Birthday Rina!
