That's not a problem bamaboise, we're all human and prone to mistakes, we don't worry about things like that here. Welcome to you, hugs and a flower for you, and enjoy your stay.

What a wonderful daughter-in-law you are! There are some FSL (free standing lace) boxes that have 4 sides. I don't recall right away what site they are on, but look on the standards, and I'm sure will find something you like.(or let me know if you don't find one and I'll try to locate it for you) ;)

emblibrary.com also has some very cute FSL bag designs. They are called Goodie Bags: Hearts, Heart & Vines,Roses,& Love. I haven't stitched them out yet but they are on my "To Do" list. I don't remember the cost. They have some things on sale right now because of their 10yr anniv.

What a special idea!! I'm partial to the idea of a FSL trinket box, but then I'm always partial to the stuff I can't do (yet), LOL. You're one special Daughter-in-Law. But then, you're one special lady anyway, since you married the Marines. OooRah, Ma'm! Marji

on the carol duvall show they did a beautiful bronzing technique using stencils. check it out www.diynetwork.com episode cds-1427F. It gives the box a vintage look and it looks like it is easy to do.

a-stitch-a-half makes the most beautiful little boxes either FSL or out of satin etc. I would highly recommend her. She currently has a sale on and you should be able to get the design for $3.
