Did my DIY card box!

So I worked on my card box today.  I think it came out FABULOUS!!  I still have to cover the base with batting and fabric, as well as cover the top with batting and fabric.  Steve and I also need to pick out 2 more pictures to put in the frames, but other than that it is done!!

I used 4 11" x 13" frames that I got at Christmas Tree shop for $7 each.  I also bought L-brackets, screws, duct tape, foam board, and a lazy-susan from Wal-Mart.  I followed the directions from my previous post.  I turned my picture frames sideways, rather than up and down.  I liked the lower profile of it, and it seemed bigger to me that way.  The post on how to do the DIY card box shows the woman doing her picture frames upright.  It looked nice, but I wanted mine sideways!!

If you want the directions, read my blog from January 5th, or go to http://roadtotheaisle.blogspot.com/2007/09/diy-photo-frame-cardbox.html.

I am so happy with how it came out.  I tried using hot glue to hold the brackets, but because the wood is so shiny they kept peeling off.  I finally had to find some screws to use.  The ones that came with the brackets were a bit too long and would have gone right through the frame, so I have to scrounge around in the basement and find shorter ones.  All of the screws are different, so it looks interesting on the inside; but no one will see that!

I am not sure if I want to cover the whole base with fabric or just the edges.  I will most likely do the whole base because it will be easier with the batting just to do the whole things rather than bits and pieces.

Let me know what you think of the card box!
