Americana black paint
Sponge brush
Thin red tape or ribbon
Different denominations of money
Wooden knob
Thin yarn, usually used for needle point
First, paint the paper Mache box with the black paint and let it dry completely. You don’t have to paint the inside, but you can if you would like to. Next paint the wooden knob and set it aside. Roll the money into tiny diploma looking rolls and keep them sealed with either red ribbon or red tape. Stack them in the painted box and close the lid. To create the tassel, keep the needlepoint thread in the shape that you purchased it and cut one string off it to tie around the top of the Skeen, leaving a loop at the top. Cut the tips of the end to make it look like a tassel. Hook the tassel around the wooden knob.
