Over at the WTA forum they had a deal where you could turn a box for the Beads of Courage program. I wanted to do it but I could not come up with an idea for a box that would appeal to kids. So I asked my daughter, Amber, if she would paint something on one if I turned it. She's a pretty talented artist with a flair for whimsy. Anyway this is what she came up with. I thought it turned out pretty good. The wood is just very plain box elder, the paint is acrylic. All it has is a coat of WOP to seal the wood. We'll probably over coat it with a coat or two of poly before we send it off to the BOC folks.
