Not Bushcraft related but I thought I would share my latest piece of work.

It's a memory box for a friends little girl things, she was premature and after 3 months she lost her life to many infections. It's been 18 months since Evie passed away, Mum and Dad want to pack some of her things away but not out of site. So I offered to make them a piece to keep her things in but also keep them in plain site for mum to go to when she needs to. They are collecting it tomorrow so fingers crossed they will like it, it's made of Oak to match their other furniture and laquered to give a natural look to the wood.

I hope you all like it, it's been a pleasure to make knowing its for a special little girl who's life was cut so short.
