My Take on a Bento Box, during lock down


This is a project that I have been working on while in lock down at home. During this year here in Melbourne everything, class, retreat, camp  etc. was cancelled, sadly. The most disappointing for me was missing out on my class with Seth Apter, it was going to be his Bento Box. I started searching for and saving tins and other receptacles to use in the class, and as the retreat was not going ahead due to the state the world was in and is still in at this point, I decided to give the Bento Box a go on my own. So above is a look at the Box packed with some of the things I have saved to use in this project. Some things have already changed. I will keep updating the box and once completed I will post a new photo.



This is an old cigarette tin. I've used a leather strap to keep it closed as the tin is quite old and the clasp doesn't work well anymore.



I've decorated inside the lid and enclosed some small collages on tags and card.


Some of the tags were a bit long so I just folded up the bottom and created a little pocket to pop in a ticket or something else.
