"Church of the Ordinary"

What do you make out of an ordinary 5 x 7 pine box, pictures, saint statues and misc. bits and pieces?

If you're Lorraine, the talent behind Glimmering Prize, a Morpheus box of course...

The first sale from my supply shop were a set of these metal pieces...which turned out to be the finishing touch on her Morpheus Box.


Her finished piece looks like this: absolutely extraordinary! Thanks for the business and letting me feature your work!


For more information on the Morpheus Box and its assemblage, see the Glimmering Prize blog.
