Outstanding….

Very nice. I bet that cedar smells amazing. I love the smell of fresh cut cedar.

-- While teaching a class, a gentlemen once asked me: "When chip carving an intricate design, what do you do when you are almost finished and the wood breaks off?" I replied "Cover the kids ears."

This looks to me like a natural offshoot of your core business.
They definitely complement your inlaid boxes.

If they take off, you might want to think about other boxes you can add to your line.

Vey nice !!!

The inlay work separates them from the crowd.

Thank you all for the kind words.

I finished them the same way I finish my boxes with inlay. Sanding sealer and spray gloss finish from a rattle can of Rustolium. I flocked the interior of the boxes and of the drawers. If you look closely at the photo with eleven boxes you can kinda’ see how I flocked the interior of the drawer that is open in the box at the center of that photo. The drawer is open on that one.

Those are gorgeous! I especially like the tri color one with the big ol’ texas star on it. How much were you selling them for?

Thanks for the kind comments:

I already sold one of these boxes that is shaped like the Texas flag for $30. Lots of work/fun for $30.

I only get $20 for my other boxes so now I have something to offer at a different price for different folks.

Well done Jim. Am I correct in thinking that you sold all 11 at the market? I hope so.

Very nice looking and finished!!!! BUT in my HO the pulls you use on them, at least in the pics seem out of place or a bit to dainty.
For 20 -30$ are you making any money on them for T&M???
