Default :Scrap Ceder Chest:

Yesteday I was cleaning up some here in my art room looking through some boxes of scraps wood I have.{cut off from larger carvings}

Found a small block of old ceder and carved this little ceder chest.

Its 1 1/4 tall and 1 3/4 long. Just right to slide a pair of earings in tomorrow morning for my wifes Valentines present.

Plus she can store something in it like a quilt but it better be a small one!!

Thanks for looking.

Forrest

Nice one Forrest! By giving her the chest & ear rings, you may get out of some of those "honey-do's", at least maybe the list will be shorter.

Hey Forrest, Boy are you ever going to make some points with your Sweety tomorrow. I hope you don't use them all at once,save some for later needs, Oh yes, you will need them somewhere down the road. Ha,Ha. Oh, By the way that's a good job on her trunk,but I don't think I have to tell you that but I need to. Stay Well Ole Friend and enjoy tomorrow. Merle

Dan she has a long list of honey do's,she keeps em in a 4 X 6 foot box and its full to the top but Im hoping she likes this little chest enough she might keep all of them in it which means there will be less of them!!!!!

Sum thang tells me if nothing else,tomorrow I might only have 15-20 honey do's tomorrow with her in a good mood over the earings and the chest??:::Im trying:::

Thanks Dan for your thoughts!!

Forrest
