Magical Creation Box





Another project that I just completed, after staying up until 230 in the morning lastnight...but HEY! It's done and it's fun!...The Magical Creation Box! This idea came from Violette's Folk Art Blog
Here is the idea she posted behind the Magical Creation Box, in case anyone wants to participate: (Copied and pasted from her site above)

Magical Creation Box
In the book Ask and it is Given the author talks about creating a Magical Creation Box. Now i've heard this kind of box called a God Box as well as some other names before. The author recommends you be in a very good and positive state when you go about creating this box.

Embellishing and filling your box
You find a box that is pleasing to you.....the shape does not matter at all. In an obvious place you write (or collage) Whatever is contained in this box - IS!. Since you're all artists out there you are going to want to paint and embellish your box i'll bet although this is not essential. The next thing you do is gather magazines, brochures, catalogues and thumb through them clipping out images, words and phrases that you want to have as part of your experience. As you drop the clippings into your box say "Whatever is in this box - IS!". You can continue to find clippings of things that appeal to you...it could be people having conversations to symbolize friendships or a picture of a man who embodies some of the characteristics you are looking for in a mate. Don't forget to write a description of your ideal day (this one's from me), where you are working, what you are doing, what kind of people are surrounding you, what you are wearing etc. You need to focus your desires in order to manifest what you want in your life. The more you do this the more you'll find you are drawing the people, things and situations to you that you want.

Hope everyone has as much fun as I did! I'm filling it up with "What IS" as we speak! Take a pic of your box and post the link in my comments...I'd love to see them!

    I started making a box last night too. I need to work a little on embellishing it some more. I did not have any one paper that would cover the whole box. So it looks sort of disjointed. Perhaps I should take in progress pictures to see how it evolves. I will post pics on my blog when its done.
