Hi, my next project is something I wanted to make for a long time and I finally did it.
It's a miniature apothecary shadowbox.
I used a lot of Tim Holtz products.
The box is a Tim Holtz divided vignette,
Most bottles are covered in a layer of Ranger Distress collage medium
to make them look vintage.
The paper I used in the boxes is also from Tim Holtz: the Etcetera paperstash.
Furthermore I used the halloween snippets, bones, skulls and
chipboards from Tim Holtz.
Some of the labels on the bottles I found on pinterest, some are stickers I had in my stash.
Most bottles are filled with mystical ingredients.
I also added three handmade miniature books (I found the tutorial here).
And papers scrolls (made from washi tape), charms, cheesecloth, ephemera,
beads, skulls, bones and other bits and bobs.
I took a lot of pictures.
Enjoy!
It was such a great project to make! It took me some time but the result was worth it.

Amazing! Love all those tiny details.
Wow! Fabulous! I also have this plan for a long time, and I know how it's such time consuming but so rewarding once achieved, and you made it so wonderfully! Every object, every detail in place, such a thought scenery, I can't stop watching. Bravo!
Simply jaw-dropping. I'm blown away by your attention to detail - all those tiny labels, inked and aged, and the scrolls of parchment, the rather mouldy-looking contents of some of those jars! The advertisements and posters make a perfect backdrop for your gathered glassware collection and old books. I'm so glad you shared so many close-ups - there's just so much to enjoy and admire here. Thanks so much for joining us on A Vintage Journey this month.
