Nesties Layering Box



I decided I needed a way to visually layer my Nestabilities so I could see what things would look like. When dealing with the Nesties themselves it was confusing as to which piece came from which set when doing multiple layering. I spent an evening cuttinig each shape from each large set in green. I then cut each shape from each small set in white. These can be used to see exactly what the results will look like and how they will fit in the intended space. I used a CD tin for the box. I printed the words on the computer on Avery sticky back paper (comes in a package in Office Supplies at Walmart) and then decorated it with an SU roller and French Blue Colorbox Chalk ink. It has already proved to be very helpful.
