Very new to CW so still feeling my way out on what and how I can use it. My wife asked me to do a chest for my step daughter so I thought a nice cedar chest would go nicely in her room. She is really into beach stuff so I thought to add a few decorative carvings on the lid. Realize now after the fact I should have scaled up the carvings a lot further. The wife loved it and I hope the child appreciates it later. This was not fine woodworking. I used screws and slapped it together in about 8 hours but still really like how it came out. I love to apply the poly and see what Santa brought me in the color of the grain. Solid cedar construction through out.
By the way...thanks to all the artists that provided the carvings in the pattern trade section. Still figuring how to do good patterns but will reciprocate.
