Pretty Box for Crystal Ball

I sold my Crystal Ball last week. I had to send it off in something special so I found this hollow, naked 5.5" box at the craft store. I was lucky...one of the panels was completely loose. I was able to remove it completely, sand it nice and smooth and paint it. I painted most of it in a white acrylic guasch, on the lid I did a full coat of white and a full coat of taupe. Once it was dry, I sanded it (just the lid) to have the white show up under the taupe. The handle is one of my beautiful river stones found on the banks of Mouse Creek, I drilled holes and tied it with some linen twine. I glued another small river stone inside the box to show how to place the lid.
