Home Decorating Tip - Empty Shadow Box Ideas

By: Rick Johnson

Making a personal reflection is important in your home. But, how can you do this quickly and easily? I'm going to tell you how to add your very own personality to any room in your home and not break the bank.



Here is an excellent home decorating tip - craft a shadow box in the style of your room. This is not only fun, but could be turn into part time income building boxes for others after some practice. But how do you turn an ordinary box into a masterpiece? I will let you in on some empty shadow box ideas.



Determine what size you want.



Simply run down to your local hobby or craft store to see the dozens of empty shadow boxes available. The choices can be a bit overwhelming. Just keep in mind where you are going to display your box and pick the best one for your new craft. For instance the bathroom usually requires only a small box. A small box can be used on top of a desk. The opposite is true also, look for bigger sizes to fill large spaces.



Pick out a style.



You might like to craft for yourself, or make a personal gift for a friend or family member, a golf shadow box. Golf is a wonderful project theme. You might include some green indoor-outdoor carpet, maybe some old driver covers, a ball and some sand would help create a stunning accent for the living room or office.



Around your kitchen table, create a bountiful harvest feel by adding some silk or dried flowers and fruits to your shadow box. You could make a smaller version and put it somewhere in your bathroom.



For the pet lover the animal themed shadow box is a great addition to their home. Dog bones and paw prints, or some of your cat's favorite toys arranged with pictures of your animals show how much you love and care for the four legged members of your family.



Like sports? How about adding some miniature basketballs, baseball bats, or footballs available at your local craft store. For the bedroom you might like a Hawaiian theme. Some sand, a miniature palm tree and a lei would create a Hawaiian project.



Add personality to your home. Simply go to your local hobby store where a little imagination and a few supplies can turn into a beautiful conversation piece for you. Or make some for other people to pick up some extra dough.
