Kaisercraft ~ Marker Storage Unit ~ Kaisercraft Confetti Collection


Hello again. Today I am sharing a marker storage unit which I have decorated using papers from Kaisercraft's Confetti Collection. As you can see it is cheery, bright and functional. I wanted to add dimension to my project as it is something that I will see each time I sit down to create, so I want it to be inspiring as well as something I enjoy seeing. I am going to show a lot of photos in this post (my apologies in advance!)

I wanted something dimensional to feature on the top. I die cut a doily and created the blossom tree. The pots are actually candles. I just added some lace and flowers to the top.

I selected a wooden bird flourish and used distress crackle paint to decorate it. As it is uneven, it adds different dimension and the illusion of feathers.

I painted the interior and parts of the exterior with white paint. The rest was decorated with papers from The Confetti Collection. As you can see, I used some paper to cover the interior. Having a subtle colour showing adds to overall finish.


The sides have dimensional flower pots. These are peat pots used in gardens! I bought some from Bunnings and simply cut in half, created a back so that I could attach to the side. Inside the pot is some florist foam which enabled me to add my assortment of flowers.
