【magnet】 Butterfly Trinket Box
IMAGES
INFO
» 4.5" x 4.5" x 3" in volume, plus decorations on top
» Uses no glue-- totally assembled using stitches and wire
» Hand washable, air dry
» Durable. Won't crack if dropped.
Actually, I usually test my pieces by throwing them at a wall. The worst that could happen to this piece (barring someone attacking it with scissors or an iron) is that the wire handle could get bent or come loose. If, you know, you threw it across the room.
» Good for holding delicate or easily-scratched items, since the inside is essentially lined in yarn. (Cloth lining available for an additional charge, but only really necessary if you plan on storing objects that would snag the yarn.)
» Each box custom-made, choose your own colors

NOTES
» Butterfly wings may be two different colors.
» Colors on butterfly wings are for entirety of wing, not for each little patch of color.
» Though not entirely necessary, I would prefer that 7 & 8 be the same color.
» Fairly unlimited colors available in yarn; limited colors available in craft lace. If yarn is supposed to match the craft lace, the yarn color will be chosen to be closest to the craft lace available. This is irrelevant if you want the craft lace to be a different color than the rest of the box. (For example, if you order a box done in Miku Green but want a Luka Pink craft lace headphone cord.)
» Lace trim can have the secondary frills facing in or out. See photos for example:
facing in:
facing out:
COLORS
» When you make your color designations, please indicate which Vocaloid character to which the color corresponds.
» Miku Green (██████████)
» Luka Pink (██████████)
» Kaito Blue (██████████)

» Kagamine Yellow (██████████)
» Neru Yellow (██████████)

» Alternately, should you want a color not necessarily associated with a Vocaloid character, paste the hexidecimal code for the color you want into the order form. Either use the Color Picker tool in Photoshop to find the code, or use the partial list/chart at Wikipedia. [link]
» An exact match for yarn and/or craft lace color can't be guaranteed, but will be as close as possible.
