Finished the nesting boxes

They stack nicely too! I added handles to the smaller two boxes to allow for easy removal. Lots of tiny errors on this set, but the next batch will be much better. This whole box making gig is quite the learning experience!

Awesome results! Look like they were worth the effort involved!

[spiritroadcreations]

Thanks! I am glad I went with the twine. Completes the rustic look I was going for.

Those turned out really nice. Thanks for sharing your learning experiences with us.

[spiritroadcreations]

Definitely more for decoration, but it serves its purpose as well.

[spiritroadcreations]

Very nice job! I saw these in progress and it’s great to see the completed project. Very cute to do the poem in sections on the lid. A real keepsake for sure!
