pagan themed wedding gift

This altered tin is part of a wedding gift that I made for my good friends. Their wedding was a pagan celebration so I used witchcraft as the theme for the gift. I bought a nifty wee wooden chest and decorated it with beads. I filled the chest with lots of little handcrafted goodies eg; an altered tin that had incense cones in it and some witchcraft quotes. I made up a couple of massage oil blends using essential oils and jazzed up the bottles a bit with wire and marbles. Also include in the gift were the following; two personalised bookmarks, a perfumed body cream, a heart shaped marble window hanger, a candle, some vouchers for 'breakfast in bed', 'a night off from doing the dishes' etc.., and a handcrafted wire ring for the bride and a beaded bracelet for the groom.
