This is the second box I built for my family for Christmas. My niece Jamie loves it and uses it for hiding love notes from boys! Then I take the notes, find out who the boys are, and pound them! No I am kidding…she is a good kid.

Sounds like this is your “Hit List” box!

Christopher this is another great looking box. Is it cherry/maple? What are the dimensions?

fantastic.
hit list. .that’s funny!

A long time ago I read a story in the Reader’s Digest and it told about a box to keep “good qualities” in—every time you like a boy/girl.. you write the qualities down that you like about the individual. Then, when you meet Mr./Ms. Right – he/she will have all of those wonderful qualities that you have acknowledged over the years.

Thanks for all the great compliments guys and guys! The interior isnt finished in any special way, just poly coated.

I really like the way you shape these. It gives the top a very “fabric” like look.
