My last project of 2015
#7
I finished up a jewelry box for my step daughter. Birdseye maple, walnut, African mahogany and osage orange. Other than the thicknessing of the maple everything else was done with hand tools. The finish is blonde shellac and wax. Her favorite colors are yellow and blue which accounts for the odd color combination. Sending it off for her birthday next week I hope she likes it.











Thanks for looking.
Jonathan


I only regret the tools I didn't buy!

That is beautiful! She will love it. I really like the color combination of the blue lining with the overall color and tone of the box.
