That's probably the best looking candle box I've seen.
Now, I will have to try my hand at something like it.
You don't really keep candles in it, do you?

Nope no candles thanks for the compliment.

That is really great work. Are the dovetails cut by hand or did you use a magnetic guide? They look perfect. I'm still on "training wheels" and need to do some projects like this to work of the nerve to take them off.

What a great box. You say you don't use it for candles? As excited as your grandson looks, you might consider using it as a small toy box for him. I'm sure he would love it.
