Default Brides Box
This ain't exactly carving but it is painting on wood. Anna just finished this box for one of the neighbors daughters. We remeber when she was born now shes getting married. Damn Im getting old!
We found a source for bentwood boxes in PA that are hand made. Anna painted this brides box for Christina.

What a beautiful gift! Anna's painting, and the lining with the painted inside lid are so personal and lovely. You are very fortunate to have such a talented painter in the family.
