I just picked up a gorgeous, perfect cigar box from the turn-of-the-century while junkin' last week...I wanted to alter it, but it's so pretty I don't know if I'll be able to!
Wishing you a beautiful day, my friend!

Your cigar box is gorgeous. I love all the little embellishments you added and the wings on the Charlotte doll is so clever. She looks like a little fairy sitting there to greet the person who opens the box. Beautiful work Lynn!!
Absolutely beautiful! Trace x
