We are all inventors, each sailing out on a voyage of discovery, guided each by a private chart, of which there is no duplicate. The world is all gates, all opportunities. Ralph Waldo Emerson

Amendment to earlier post
Thought I would do this an extra post because you probably won't revisit my previous post and I wanted to point out a few things that I didn't make clear.
I forgot to say that I glued the box to an extra piece of card which was 1 cm larger all round than the actual box. And I also made the easel card 1 cm larger all round than the box so that there was an overhang and it looks a little bit neater, as well being a little sturdier.
For that same reason I cut the length of my drawer (front to back) a little longer and folded it back on itself to make the front of the box double thickness which I felt would be a bit stronger when pulling it in and out.
I hope you decide to make one because I am really pleased with it. Can't wait to make some more now!
Enjoy the rest of your day!
love from Christine
