I had a request for some of my woodworking, so here goes.
Some years ago, I made a Jewelry Box to give away at our Christmas family gathering. All the girls put their names in a hat, but only one was the lucky winner, so a tradition was born.
I changed them a bit year to year, these are made from Quilted and Birdseye Maple, Australian Lacewood, and Macassar Ebony.
About fourteen boxes later all the girls are happy, and my work is done.
I have told you before but I'll say again, "these are beautiful!". When, and if, my daughter ever gets engaged to be married, may I commission your woodworking skills to build her a jewelry box?
