Cut out designs from the fabric of
your choice.

Decide where you want to place each
cut out piece.
-
Then carefully attach the fabric pieces
onto the box with a little elmer's glue.
-
With a paint brush, completely cover
each fabric piece with decoupage clear coat or elmer's glue. (Make sure
to saturate the fabric with medium/glue and brush it completely over the
edges of the fabric and onto the wooden box.)

seal. If you used elmer's glue to decoupage the fabric, Brush on a light
coat of varnish over the whole box to seal it.

like ribbon, buttons, pearls, etc..
Done!
Enjoy using your treasure boxes!
