Purple heart box

DeWayne, I have a few of Doug Stoew’s books and he is an inspiration. I also have his DVD to go with his Basic Box book. I really like the Purpleheart and Maple? combination – nice work. If you don’t mind it would be nice to also see the insides of all of your boxes – if you can.

Dewayne – three beautiful small boxes in one day – not sure my heart can take this, because I just love small wooden boxes. LOL

I, too am a fan of Doug Stowe’s boxes – I have this book, but haven’t done this box.

I love the box, especially the purple heart. How long does the wood stay purple, before it looses that vivid colour – we cannot get Purple heart here normally, but I might just place a special order for it!

Nice work Dewayne. Small boxes are one of my favorite things too.

Wow, these are both very very nice. Design, color and craftsmanship all excellent. Thanks for positing these. I have to put them on my to-do list.

Thanks for the comments. The inside of this one has no dividers so I didn’t take a photo of it. I haven’t attempted flocking or felt yet but realy like that look. This one is a bit unusual and is my own design. I have been told it has the look of a small casket. I have read about the color transformation of purpleheart over time. I believe it depends on the finish and UV exposure. I haven’t noticed any change in my projects after 4 years or so yet.
