How to do it
1 Paint the wooden bead with gold Plus Color craft paint.
2 Attach design paper onto the box and the rim of the lid using decoupage lacquer.
3 Punch out birds and leafy vines from gold metallic paper and design paper using a die-cutting & embossing machine.
4 Apply a coat of decoupage lacquer onto the entire lid using a brush and attach the leafy vines onto the lid.
5 Make a hole in the middle of the lid. Thread a ribbon through the gold-painted bead and through the hole in the lid. Secure with a knot inside the lid.
6 Make a cut in the birds for the bank note wings and a hole at the top for hanging.
7 Cut small circles from design paper with double-sided foil tape on the back. Make a hole in the middle of the circle and thread a piece of cotton cord through the hole. Trim the cord to your chosen length. Remove the protective paper from the double-sided foil tape and attach the design paper circles to the inside of the lid.
8 Tie a piece of decorative ribbon around the box and finish with a bow.
