Box Decoration - Art from waste

I have decorated waste boxes with marriage invitation cards, and table calendar designs. 

Things required are:-

Table Calendar designs ( I have used 2012 old designs in which it comes Indian Culture paintings )

Glue - Indian Fevicol

Colors of your choice.

It's quite similar to decoupage, but I have did my own style of decoupage box. 

1) First, I have trimmed the designs and borders. Usually table calendar designs are thick, so I just removed a layer, so it becomes a thin sticker like.

2) Pasted the trimmed designs and borders on the box, and applied Glue + water paste as varnish, so it looks like real painting.

3) Applying varnish is optional, but it looks glossy. I haven't applied varnish for this box decoration.
