Is it too early for a Mothers Day Project?
« on: March 02, 2011, 07:49:44 am »
I hadn't planned on making any more tissue boxes, but a friend asked if I would make one for her mother for "Mothers Day" so how could I refuse. She asked if I could include the word mother on the front. But I decided to be a little more daring and include some additional scroll work. I really like this scroll work stuff :-)

Really a beautiful tissue box!  I love the scroll work and the joinery is outstanding!  Never too early for anything I find!  (I have to start working on Christmas stuff soon!) LOL

Thanks to everyone for your comments, they are very uplifting! Sheila, I am a big fan of your work. Actually, there are so many talented people in this community it is overwhelming and at the same time it is very inspirational. After seeing all the beautiful creations that people share how could anyone not love this hobby.
