Besamim (Spice Box) - Altered Altoids 1 - HOLIDAY SALE

Description

***Special Holiday Sale Price***

This is the first in my series of altered Altoids boxes. I've developed a bit of an addiction to the chocolate covered and sours, and decided I needed to do something with the boxes!

The Altoids tin is covered with a hand embroidered cover featuring an original design. The artwork on the cover is intended to represent the scent of the spices swirling through the air. The stitches include running stitch in bright blue, white, pink, and green; french & colonial knots, sheaf stitch, seed stitches, and fly stitches. The edging was created using a heated modeling compound with which I cut an "egg and dart" border.

The box is filled with my own blend of spices which includes bay leaves, rose hips, rose petals, cinnamon, cardamom, and citrus. The sweet and spicy scent is sure to return your soul to you after Shabbat!

While my intent is for it to be used for the as a ritual spice box for the Jewish ritual of Havdalah -- it certainly can be used for keeping any treasures you like.
