Vintage Accordion Tag Box

Namaste Guy

I was commissioned to create a Masculine themed Accoridion tag Box a few days ago and the client wanted something absolutely grungy and chic.so here is what i did .

Numismatist Folder

Namaste Guys

Woohoo!! this is my 100th Post Can't believe its been 3 years and 100 post!!

Numismatics is the study or collection of currency, including coins, tokens, paper money, and related objects. While numismatists are often characterized as students or collectors of coins, the discipline also includes the broader study of money and other payment media used to resolve debts and the exchange of goods.

Well thats how Wikipedia Describes it! I received an order from a client who is a "Numismatist" to create a Luxurious folder for her currency collection! The challenge was the sheer  size of the folder . This folder I made entirely from scratch the folder stand 14 inches tall and 10 inches wide.

I wanted to to do something special for the cover I created an upholstered look using brads. Added the line " Being A Numismatist" in a label and accented with brads. 

The inside has a large binder ring to attach the leaflets !

Vintage Accordion Tag Box with Prima Archivist

Namaste Guys

Yes I know another Accordion Project but I assure this is different and I am calling this "Accordion on Adrenaline" lol...

I was commissioned to make something for a 40th birthday in a Masculine theme and it had to be unique and personal. So, I came up with doing a Massive Accordion to hold 40 Tags a tag each for 40 different people to add photos and messages on them for one special guy.

I used the amazing papers from Prima The Archivist by Frank Garcia. These designs were perfect for the look I wanted to create. I have used actual brass feet as the bottom. The letters and the tabs are Sizzix dies by #Timholtz.

Here it is.

Decoupaging with Ice Resin

Namaste Guys

What is Decoupage?

Decoupage (or découpage) is the art of decorating an object by gluing colored paper cutouts onto it in combination with special painteffects, gold leaf and so on. Commonly an object like a small box or an item of furniture is covered by cutouts from magazines or from purpose-manufactured papers. Each layer is sealed with varnishes (often multiple coats) until the "stuck on" appearance disappears and the result looks like painting or inlay work. The traditional technique used 30 to 40 layers of varnish which were then sanded to a polished finish.

Watch the full video tutorial of the Tag in the making . The Resin was so versatile and easy to use as a decoupage medium and also as a glue!

The best part about using Ice Resin as a decoupage agent you don't need to use any glue or varnish and you get a really awesome finish.
