And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step
1
For your tantalising tea bag treasure chest box, first paint an old tea bag box brown, top tip, you may need to do a few coats.
2
Once it is dry you can now draw on the detail with a black pen. The edges, the straps, key hole and the wood effect.
3
Use gold paint for the edges and the bolts. And mix a lighter brown for high lights and the straps. You may need to go over the black pen detail once the paint is dry.
4
Finally add some gold glitter glue for that extra sparkle.
5
Now you can keep all your hidden treasures inside!
