Small clipboard created for the bento box project, plus another tin with a concertina book inside.

This is the clipboard that I made for the project, using the teabags from the paper dying process. I gathered a few together and machine stitched across the top, then stamped the pages with some text. I then covered a small mounting board from some picture framers waste with some scrapbook paper and attached the pages with a bulldog clip.

More examples of the stamping onto the teabags.

I find I like to use up scrap bits and pieces rather than throw things away, like the teabags.
once they are dried out the staining leaves great marks.

The images don't have to be text on all the pages, its was just my choice on the day that I put this together.


I must have been playing around with some other dyes this day, that could explain the colour on this page, sometimes mistakes like this have a good result.

This is another of the saved tins for this bento box project. I didn't feel the need to decorate the outside of the tin as it looked like it had had a rough time and had aged beautifully anyway.


The inside of the lid needed some sprucing up with a little collage.

This is the concertina book enclosed in the tin, with every tiny page collaged.
