I'm really happy with how this turned out. I took my time and spent the entire afternoon making sure I put it together right, so I'm glad that my time wasn't wasted.

I found an old box that used to hold earrings that I had put aside thinking it would come in handy for packaging up a small gift. Here's the supplies I chose, although I didn't end up using the bottom ribbon:

Beautiful design & finish.
Lovely stitching and finishing! I have yet to make a cube either - maybe I'll give it a go!
Gorgeous. I am always slightly nervous about trying other kinds of finishes.
Turned out beautifully!
