just wondered if you have ever used old cigar boxes? As always your work is very inspirational. I especially like the way you combine the various elements to make such a cohesive whole. I always look forward to seeing what you are up to. Does the dye you mix up require wearing gloves when you apply it?

@CAP953 Hi, thanks for your comments. Yes,I've got a stack of cigar boxes, use them every now and then! One of the pieces in this video was a cigar box. I generally don't wear gloves with the dye, even though I can be bit careless with it...it seems to wash off my fingers easily.

@LittleMissStamper Many thanks!

You are always so generous with your skills and information, and the work clearly shows someone having a wonderful time doing what you love to do. The results are MAGNIFICENT!

@damncranky666 Thanks Cranky...I have a great time with my box collection...the simple joy of being able to "play."

Thanks for inspiring me as a mixed media artist to use what I have of paper book and regular boxes in my art junk stash. I'll have to try making my own unique assemblege box ASAP. :) Love your work you share here on youtube.

Once again...fantastic. I can only imagine the inventory you must have. You'll have to show us a video of your studio sometime.
