Magical glitter delights on this wood square box with brass Latch created with papers, lace, sequins, glitter and a great vintage red and rhinestone button that emulates the Amata mushroom. Two fairies hover together looking into the distant space of eternal time. Funky purple and teal foil butterflies and sequin trim line the edges. Inside is charming! long vintage bright blue faux fur is a great contrast to the mirror image on the front. Satin blue ribbon has been added to keep the lid up. Check out the bottom! Beautiful marbleized paper..

Catherine Reinke RECYCLED ARTIST
All my recycled suitcases are OOAK one of a kind . Most can be can be used on an airplane or as a carry on. They are created as works of art however. Use my suitcases as STORAGE , for DVD's, books, special clothes, treasures, and place them around your room like a piece of furniture.

I rarely will reuse an image in one of my works. I tend to cut right from the magazine or book, giving my work more uniqueness and value. I do not use digital images.
