GL CRAFTS: Recycled Boxes

 

This is a perfect way to reuse old boxes. Cover them with fabric, magazine cut-outs, postcards, wrapping paper, whatever. Each box can be personalized to fit your hobbies.

What You Need:    

*Boxes
*Old magazines
*Scissors
*Old paint brush
*Decoupage paste

What You Do:

1. Cut out pictures to fit the theme you want your box to have.
2. Paste images all over the box with decoupage paste, and let dry for about five minutes.
3. Brush two to three coats of the decoupage paste over the top of the pictures.

HEHE! I LOVEEEE THE JONAS BROTHERS. i know not everyone likes them.. and i respect that..


MOD?
but i think girlslife should make a 3-page spread of them like they did with David Henry, Moises Aries, and Jason Dolley. except they'd do nicholas jonas, kevin jonas, and joseph jonas. =]
how can i tell girl's life about my idea? is there like an e-mail address? and if there is, can i have it? please, and thank youuu! =]

i am not 2 cra-z about the Jonas Brothers, they are okay, but their songs get old after about the 5th or 6th time.

I think they are ok

MOD, my it's hard 4 me 2 talk with my parents. just last night i wuz crying, bcuz i believe i hurt my bf, but i didnt mean 2, & i thought of the song from Sweeny Todd "nothings gonna harm you, not while im around", & i wanted my mom 2 hug me, but my parents dont kno i have a a bf, & dat im havin probs with him. they dont seem 2 understand me @ times either. i kno i have the power 2 talk 2 my parents, but it's 2 overwhelmin 2 seize dat power @ the given time. do you have any suggestions?


Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and go for it...let it all out and tell them! It might be hard at first, but once you start talking, everything else will seem much easier.
