I am so excited to share a creation today from one of craftionary’s readers. Farah Gul
She loves to craft and makes beautiful things for her home. She was sweet enough to send me her tutorial on how she reinvented her mini jewelery box with flowers made from Italian dough.

Jewelry box reinvented
Bored of old useless, dull and fainted jewelry box and thinking of throwing it away. Give it a new life with flowers.
YOU WILL NEED:
- Old jewelry box
- Italian dough in red and green color (check out this step by step recipe by Craft A World)
- Glue gun
- Tooth pick
- Lacquer spray
- Golden spray paint
MAKING ROSES AND LEAVES:
ROSES
- Grease your hands with petroleum jelly or cold cream so that the dough will not stick to your hands. Then take some red dough and flatten it on your palm. Roll it into a rose bud
- Now make two small and three large balls with the red dough
- Mold them into drop shape using your fingers and flatten them on your palm to shape them like petals
- Now press the petals around the rose bud, starting with the smaller petals and ending on the larger ones
- I made twelve small and one big rose for the middle
LEAVES
- Take some green dough form a ball and shape it into a drop
- Flatten it on your palm and shape like a leaf
- Form impressions on the leaf using tooth pick to give details
- I also added some red shade on the leaves using color
- I made six leaves for the jewelry box
Leave them to dry and spray lacquer for protection when they dry
DECORAING JEWLRY BOX:
Clean and spray the box and it’s lid with the colored spray and leave it to dry. Arrange your flowers and leaves on the lid and paste them using glue gun
Hope you enjoyed the tutorial
Thanks Farah!
