Wedding Keepsake Boxes






Our daughter in law, Amy asked if I could build a box that would be placed by the guest book to collect cards at the wedding in San Francisco this past September. I chose cherry wood because of it's rich warm look. In time, it develops a beautiful patina that can't be duplicated. 

Three weeks later, the daughter of close family friends, Sarah Cantlon, was married in St Louis. It seemed appropriate to build a similar box to take as a wedding gift.

Both brides are very appreciative and feel it's a wonderful way to store and  
cherish wedding keepsakes.
