My problem though was that once the paint and paper was on the box would not open and close easily. I ended up cutting the top, gluing and using G45 hinges to open and close. <br />I have gesso but it doesn't appear to be any thinner. I'll have to try another using gesso - any hints?Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08539108199824354980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29074689.post-75488275617424516092012-11-24T09:28:39.902-08:002012-11-24T09:28:39.902-08:00gorgeous,gorgeous,gorgeousgorgeous,gorgeous,gorgeousVillaEriksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09494737898786503320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29074689.post-3921461105905887782012-11-24T07:50:46.432-08:002012-11-24T07:50:46.432-08:00Such a beautiful festive gift box!
