My friends and I found the perfect way to dispel those post Christmas blues by having a craft day together - we had all collected far too many enticing old and interesting pieces of needlework history via ebay and the like and decided to create an assemblage with them. All that is required is and old box - the first photo shows a cigar box bought for 50p at a boot fair and the second is some very nice packaging that came with a Christmas present. Get the glue gun heated up, arrange your bits just how you like them and you are away! We lined the boxes with old paper patterns and pages from a vintage magazine to set off the threads, thimbles and so on. A lot of fun was had by all!
