Marble Rose Present

My youngest left nursery school (sniff), from the same place my other daughters went to, so I made something special for the lady, Elaine, who runs it. She had ordered 10 of my pencil cases for the little leavers and expressed an interest in one of the larger boxes to keep her pictures in - so of course I had to surprise her - and here it is for you to see! I am going to add it to the Marble Rose Shop once I have rejigged the prices (cheaper!) and added more stock. What do you think??? I have figured out a way to make my own decals for lettering - I hated using stamps and decals can get expensive - my way I can print what I like in most colours and type faces - although it's a bit fiddly it's much cheaper!

  1. I would be over the moon if I received one of your charming boxes.. they are so reminiscent of my own childhood and I am sure I had a similar box in the 1960's. Gorgeous!
