Tim Holtz Rolling Christmas Configuration Box!

Hi, Everyone,
I Love Configuration Boxes! 
Today you will see how to get the most space out of your configuration boxes.

We start with the smallest 5x5" Tim Holtz Configuration Box, only 1 of them.  Inside are 5 smaller boxes.  Using the base & the lid as 2 separate configuration boxes glued next to each other & stacking some of the smaller boxes outside the main boxes creates more surface area for you to embellish.  The 5x5" Configuration Box has now grown to 7x14"!  Now that's spending your money wisely.  Have a look.











Hope you expand your configuration boxes to get more bang for your buck.

      I love getting the most bang for my buck. Spreading out the boxes provides a lot more surface area to embellish . . . & I'm all about the embellishments! Thanks for stopping by.

      When I first saw the Configuration Boxes being used in projects, the 1st thing that came to mind was why not use both the lid & the box as 2 separate compartments. . . & who said the tiny boxes had to say inside? I've never gone back. Thanks for stopping by.

      The funnest part for me about Configuration Boxes is shopping at Antique Stores. Snooping through all the boxes overflowing with things & stuff anticipating a hidden treasure is so exciting! Thanks for stopping by.
