Heart in heart jewerly box, my version
All the regulars on this site know that BillK does some exceptional carving. Recently, Bill posted his Heart in heart jewelry box that he made for a customer, and I thought it was nice enough to make a similar one for my wife. All the projects posted by members of the forum are inspirations for me, as well as others, and that's what its for, to learn from, as well as help others with their projects. I didn't want to make the exact same project, nor could I since Bill is light years ahead of me in the 3D area. But I did do a very similar version, the inside anyways, but changed things a little on the outside. Mine is Red Oak, with a Purple Heart wood 3D Rose on top for a handle to lift the lid. I'm still going to either paint, or stain the text to make it more legible. Credit for this goes directly to Bill for his idea for this project, so, keep up the good work Bill, and keep them coming, I need more projects to copy!

Keith,
That came out great and I'm very flattered that my design inspired you to make this. My original design was with red oak but my customer wanted something lighter in color, so we used Maple.
It's great to know an idea I had in New York could inspire a project in Arkansas!
Keep up the great work!

Thanks Bill and Tony. Should have, and will, make the rose larger, and just noticed the bottom text was off center, so a new one is on order.
