Review on 🎁 DIY Wooden Recipe Box with Hinged Lid and Front Clasp - Customizable Gift, Jewelry, and Photo Box by Kim Sanchez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Beautiful box of author's recipes for decoupage

I chose decoupage, not paint, because I love natural wood. I made my own box of recipes for my daughter's bachelorette party using clippings from a shower invitation and a few other things. I added several coats of polyurethane and cooled the steel between coats which made the box look nice. I'm giving 4 stars for two reasons: 1. The box is really 4x6 and most of the recipe dividers are taller (to show the tabs). I had to cut the top and bottom of the divider pack to fit in the box. 2. Also, wood was good for polyurethane but not fantastic due to cheap wood. If I do it again I'll paint the box to hide the bad grain. Although not a large wood, it is very durable.

Pros
