Feeling a little crafty

Last week while I was cleaning out my laundry room I noticed that I still had all of my maps and such from my trip to Bahrain. I knew while I was over there that I wanted to make a shadow box to go downstairs next to the one that I made for our first eagles game. So I grabbed everything and sat down to get it done.

All of my stuff laid out getting ready to start.

Right before I glued everything down.

Adding the sand that I made Justin put in a ziplock bag for me the last day we were there.

Adding the BD (Bahrain coins).

Finished. I went back and added the movie stub from the movie we went to while we were there. I like the finished product.
I want to make one for every big trip we take but for the life of me I can't find good cheap shadow boxes like these. I guess I will just have to keep looking.

You did a GREAT job on it!!! I can't believe you got him to bring sand back - that's cute. We got a shadow box at Target, believe it or not. It was nice meeting you at Steph's party; I now have faces to the names!
