Wood is probably the medium I least like working with but this year I decided I make some boxes for some of the family.



Two of the boxes are fitted pistol boxes (one for my sister and one for my son in law).




The other two are for my daughter and my niece, they're just simple lock boxes, although I fitted both with false bottoms.



When I got those four done, I figured I pretty much had Christmas covered…..then I realized I had forgotten my nieces’ husband who will also be here Christmas. Probably wouldn’t be too cool if all the adults coming here got a nice handmade box and he ended up with a pair of socks. Anyway I picked him up a nice Buck Knife which was pretty much just a reason to build a small fitted box for him.






Anyway, I still don’t care for working with wood, but I’m pretty happy the way things turned out.
