“Tree Boxes”
There are now tree, er, 3 tree boxes in my six various versions of the evergreens from the Magic Black Forest. And these I made into boxes because I like the idea of ‘Function’ that would make them useful storage for something small and precious: a memory rock from the MBF, a photo from a Saturday family tree plant day, a raven’s or turkey feather, a butterfly, a preserved ladyslipper orchid or grass widow or yellow bell or…. Birch, 5×7-11”, satin lacquer.
