heppnerguy Posted February 15, 2016 Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 I made the box from teh tutorial that Jim Finn posted. Sharon and I have been Elvis fans for a long time so i knew she would enjoy the box with him on it. I found out I could do these little boxes without a lot of hassle. Thank you Jim Finn for the encouragement and the detailed explanations on how to make them. I did not have the kind of Cedar Jim uses and the fact that i am new to making these, makes mine not near as nice as Jim's but hey, this is my first box too. He is a pro at making them and has sold hundreds of them. I am one person who is lucky to have a Jim Finn box in my house, as I bought one for my wife for Christmas from him. I hope to make others soon. I also cut a wrapped wooden candy, Valentine piece for my wife, just because i thought it was a fun design, made by Sue Mey.
