Dragon Eye Journal/Box

Recently, I learned how to make glass "dragon eyes". What do you do with a handful of dragon eyes? I decided to make a spell book box. It looks like an ancient leather bound book on the outside, but it's really a box.

I must give credit to the talented Yvonne Williams of Back to Earth Creations for her excellent tutorials on making the eyes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsSaE9g1Y1w
There are other tutorials available on you tube by other artists, but hers was the best for me.

 The outside is covered in paper which I distressed to resemble old worn leather, and the the interior is a chipboard box I made and covered in old style paper to coordinate with the outer cover. 

Here are some other views of the box.
