Evening all, hope your all on the brink of a fab week-end, or a lazy and lolling about one.....lol...
I hope you can help me out here,I made this box to put some treats in for a friend, she never comes on my blog so no probs there....anyway, something about it isn't right, is it lacking something or does it need something....I can't put my finger on it at all, but it's driving me nuts....just not how I pictured it at all...feel really disappointed in it...what do you think...I mean REALLY think, should I ditch and start over.......hhheeeellllllllllpppppppppp....lol...
The pics are not good I know, but even thats not an excuse for it, the more I look the more I don't like what I'm seeing......oohhh dear....
can you see what I mean.....think I'd best try again.....must thanks Tilly for her contribution to this...re poinsetta and gorgeous swirls and I love them my lovely pal.... and the corners were from a candy from the lovely Mandy......oh I do get spoiled...lol....now c'mon, tell me is it the Bin or a re-fit....thankyou so much...hugs Janette.xxxxxxxxx

I can't see anything wrong with this at all Janette!!!! You've done an amazing job; I just love it's vintage/distressed style. You're sooo clever! xxx
Now then mrs - you know how you just said 'how can you not like this?' on my blog... well really... pot, kettle... It's STUNNING! I love everything about it, looks perfect to me :o) Lisa x
What a question hun! your box is lovely but I bet id=f you don't like it it won't see tomorrow lol, that;s usually what happens to my stuff anyway lol, enjoy your weekend hunny, it's supposed to be nice on Sat, we shall see lol, hugs Liz xx
Hi Janette, look woman if you put this in the bin I'm gonna come and get it out! I think the outside of the box is absolutely beautiful, it's gorgeous honestly. If I had to add something, it would just be a gem or something in the centre of the snowflake, but to be honest that's only if you pushed me to find something.
Maybe the inside could be lined or something, but when you've got your gift inside it, it would look different anyway. The edges of the box tabs stand out to me is all, so I'd have to cover them up, but you should DEF NOT bin it.
Janette get yer specs on mate,cus this is bl***y STUNNING.I'll have it ROFL.Hugs xxx
Hi Janette....WHAT YOU LIKE!!!There is nothing wrong with your beautiful box, have you been to the opticians lately...lol
In all honestly i would add another bow or a large gem to the snowflake on the top if you are wanting to add something!!but there is no real need for this.
please don't bin it your friend will love it. hugs carol ps have a lovely weekend, x carol
Change the image, fill it with maltesers and mr allsorts and send it to me....pack with ribbon and buttons so sweets don't roll about..... my addy is.....

Drat, Tilly got there first! There's nothing wrong with the box Janette - it's gorgeous. Now I'm one of those odd people who love Turkish Delight (the real stuff mind) so instead of going to the bother of sending it to Tilly, send it to me instead! :) LOL

I am laughing my butts off of these funny comments :o)) hee hee hee! Don't you dare bin this lovely box! Your friend'll like it, I bet!! And I like it too. But I do understand that it's aweful when u think it's not nice and are totaly unsatisfied with the result. No matter what all others say, you still won't like it. Maybe it's too much glitter and sparkle whem you look at it, or there is another colour missing (for instance somethin in black)...yes, actually I think some black spots would be not such a bad idea...like a black piece of lace or another black ribbon or some pearls...
Oh anyway, if I had it in my mailbox, I'd love it, 'cause it was from you and made with love (LOL, maybe not this one, otherwise you would like it...only jokeing)!!
xoxo, Alessandra
PS: Sorry, I will not comment the next week, I'll be in Ireland on vacation...
Well this has been such a fun read through all these posts Janette. I hope you listen to them all as I so agree this is such a lovely box. I also agree if I was to do anything at all....it would be to add a gem or matching beads to the snowflake as you have on the holly in the other corner. I bet your friend loves it.
Hi Janette now you know me and I never lie do i and i always tell how daft you are what stunning things you make well. Sorry this is total pants and think they only place this should go is in MY BIN NOT TILLYS. Lol got you. Dont want sweets or ribbons just the box. Ok guess it is lovely and you should keep for your friend if you really must but looks like you have a queue for it if she doesnt get it.
Hi Janette like everyone else I think your box is gorgeous if one of my friends made it for me 1. I would collapse because none of them are crafty ha ha 2. I would absolutely love it and treasure it. xx
Hi Janette, Wow this is stunning!
Lisa x
Well I can see anything wrong with it at all, it's stunning as it is. Methinks you are too self critical :o)

Wowzers hun this is just fantastic I love the colour and the Silver embossing is a fabulous contrast, it really makes the Red pop,
Have a lovely Saturday,
Hugs Bridget :00 x
hi janneta,i like the box,dont through it out. maby if anything the image in the center round, would have stud out a bit more if you had used a black ink image,to contrast with the colour surounding it. maby you could just do another round and black image,and lay it on top to see what you think, you could lay it over the other one.hope you dont mind my surgestion,things dont go right for me, and i ask foe advice to,love bluebell-flowerwoodx.
well i think you need to go to specsavers.i can not see anything wrong at all and i think if you added to it, you would spoil it.the vintage image and colours are stunning ;D
as everyone else has said i would be honoured to recieve a gift like this ;D
xx coops xx
Oh wow this is stunning!!! There's nothing wrong with it and your friend is going to love it. I wish I could make a box as stunning as this.
