Make a wish...and it might come true.

Happy Tuesday! Hope you are all doing well today and your week is off to a fabulous start. Yesterday was my turn to post at the Your Memories Here Blog. I shared the altered box found below. I created this using an old wooden cigar box that I have had forever! I just never knew what to do with it! 

After getting some more supplies from Your Memories Here, I had an idea. Make a wish box. Somewhere I can store my wishes and dreams for myself and my family. I can also stick photos in here of things I would like to have for my home and family. Only for my eyes. And for your eyes, before I add some things to it anyway. ;) 

Here are the photos of the finished box....

A side few of the top and the trim and flowers on the sides and front of the box.
