poem trunk
okay so i just can't stop myself from stamping poems, words and quotes into pieces of furniture or other things we are making here in the shop!
this old trunk has a great patina, but needed some new hinges and a sprucing up on the inside.
cute little compartments to hold your cute little things!
for this piece, i chose touched by an angel by maya angelou. in thinking about what would be right, this popped to the front of my mind. as i looked at a few other choices, i just kept coming back to it. the process is painstaking, but becomes quite meditative and i just love the results!

I so love this - beautiful.
thanks ladies!
I am absolutely in LOVE with this! I am eyeballing all my furniture, wondering what I would stamp on it. What kind of letter stamps are you using?
Thanks Alayna! We use steel stamps by a company called Pittsburgh. They come in various sizes and we picked them up at Harbor Freight.
