| Repurposed Heart Candy Box |
Hard to believe this heart is a repurposed candy box! Yes, really it is! Isn't it beautiful? This was another idea I saw over on Pinterest! Using bloomers of any color would work, but today is our Stamp Simply red hot ribbon inspiration! The gorgeous Red Velvet Ribbon adds that perfect touch too! It is 3/8" and comes in 12 rich colors! The awesome green leaves are called mulberry rose leaves and are available at The Stamp Simply RIBBON Store HERE.

| Heart Candy Box-Before Embellishment |
This is what I started with! I spread a layer of Aleene's Tacky Glue (bought at Michaels) on the entire lid. Starting at the heart bottom point, I attached the bloomers row by row, until the lid was fully covered! The sentiment is from JustRite's Winter Words Clear Stamp Set. I just went to The Stamp Simply Store to link the set and saw it's on sale! Great shopping news! Happy Valentine's Day is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink found HERE.

Beautiful as always. I love how you repurpose items!

Hi Barb~
I have loved those blooms in ribbon since I first saw them...and now you have really encouraged me to get them! I just love the idea of recycling objects...and this one came out beautifully! I love all of the texture in this project. And, there are so many ideas of what could go in this special box now!
Thank you for entering me in the amazing collection being given away!
He IS Able!

Love this idea, great way to use the ribbon and an "old" valentine box. Great blog candy too!
Barb, the candy box is fantastic.
Beautiful box.. beautiful flowers!
Bernice P
Wow, I've never seen so many ribbon roses in one place! Beautiful!
OMG! Absolutely LOVE how you re-purposed that candy box. The bloomers are gorgeous, and I'm going to have to try this. (Much easier starting with a heart-shaped candy box rather than having to make the box.)
I, too, love reusing boxes. Wow what an awesome heart box-you have embellished it to the hills lol!
What a great idea and it's so beautiful! Makes you want to dive right in with its luscious texture and color.
Oh Barb, this is stunning (repurposed or not). What a grand way to give a Valentine that doesn't break the bank but looks so rich.
Marcie

Beautiful. What a great idea.
I'm dying to run my hands over the roses on that box!
I love this! It reminds me of the first heart-shaped box of chocolates I received. Fantastic!
Gorgeous project-great recycling too.
Wow what an awesome transformation of the candy box!
Wow what a fantastic way to dress up the box!!
Gorgeous! Very rich looking! I knew I saved a heart shaped box a long time ago for something! Now I know what I can do to perk it up!
