I upcycled the wine gift box.

I removed all the hardware and sanded off the finish.

I covered the entire box with the Craftbox Steampunk City paper collection. I then added the hardware back on.

I wanted a 3D look for certain items of interest I chose on the papers.

I cut out duplicate images and curved them using a ball stylus.

I popped up the images and curved them to give it depth.

The layering creates a fun dimensional twist to the box

I layered the steam pipes as well.

I curved the pipes with the ball stylus.

I layered them with foam tape.

I cut out additional elements to pop-up certain elements

I popped out balloons as well and applied Mod Podge to all elements to give strength to the 3D pieces.

I used Prima Art Alchemy Antique Brilliance Wax, White Gold4016) • Prima Art Alchemy Antique Brilliance Wax, Aged Brass (#963965)

I added the Paper Studio’s small metal handle to hang tags onto.

I coated the entire piece in Mod Podge to seal everything.

Completed wine gift box.

Steampunk Wine Bottle Gift Box original multi-media design created by Jason “JD” Duigou

Details of some of the deeply layered and distressed gears.

I added a fun Pocket Watch from Tim Holtz Assemblage collection.

Inside I added a watch face and gear-heart..

I created custom tags

I added ribbons and ephemera.

I then tied the tags to the top.
