Wow! Just awsome. Lots of treasures here.

What a heart breaker. I’m sure she loves the chest.

Our youngest LumberJock! That’s it you gotta start them early. Then she’ll be better that grandpa one day! If this her first project, Larry? Thanks for sharing, it looks like it fit the plan really well.

Terrific piece Larry! Very, very creative. And I forsee an awful lot of broken hearts as that cutie is growing up. What a doll. Thanks for posting!

Very nice!! I can see why she treasures it! Is that a decal on the side, or did you use a woodburner?

I am start ing to make boxes, and I love your design—especially the extras! Keep up the great work!

God Bless,

You have two treasures there. I can’t wait to get my grandson in the shop, but he’s only 3 and Mom and Dad say no, he’s too young yet. We’ll see. Jockmike

Thanks all – she is cute but verrrrrrrry bossy. Takes after her mom who is a corp. attorney and she knows how to push her older sister’s anger buttons.
Hawqnutz – the side is not a decal but wood burning and jokmike 2 – lol – I did not ask the parents…but we were very careful.

I think that your granddaughter probably loves small wooden boxes; I know that I do.

I think she’s the real treasure with a dimple on her cheek – cherish the moment, Larry, it will pass all too soon.

Oh, now that’s nice!

Very Nice Larry.
The box will hold something more special than any amount of money could buy and something that she won’t even need the padlock for.

Many years from from now she will be able to show this to her little girl, and when Ali opens that treasure chest she will find that special memory of the day her and grandpa worked in the shop together.

Great Treasure Chest
