VICTORIAN BOXES

EUREKA!!  TWO DOWN AND TWO MORE TO GO!!  THESE ARE MY SECOND FAVORITE. MY SON'S BIRTHDAY BOX BEING THE FIRST.  :-)   I LOVE ANYTHING VICTORIAN SO I REALLY WANTED TO MAKE A BOX WITH A VICTORIAN, GIRLIE THEME.  :-)  THE TRUNK IS A REPLICA OF THE OLD STEAMER TRUNKS THAT PEOPLE USED FOR TRAVELING, RIGHT DOWN TO THE LITTLE COMPARTMENT.  I ALSO DUPLICATED A SLIP AND CORSET,  I HAD PLANNED TO DRAPE THEM OVER THE TRUNK BUT THEY'RE NOT SOFT ENOUGH.  I THOUGHT OF MAKING MINI HANGERS AND HANG THOSE, WITH CLOTHES ON THEM, ON THE TRUNK BUT THEY WOULD BE WAAAAAY TOO SMALL FOR ME TO MAKE.  I'M HAPPY WITH THE BOXES SO THAT'S OKAY.
