The Great Display Case Experiment

Before Lady had her first foray into the Johnson Space Center Craft Show, I had the task of making her a display case for some of her art. (You can read all about how the show went over at her art blog.)

So, I drew on my considerable experience of attending flea markets for inspiration. Ha! All those hours of walking the fleas has finally paid off. The key component to the box was that we finally found pieces of cheap glass at Home Depot (our home away from home). The glass determined the dimensions of the box, and after some routering, ta-da! We had a display case. The finishing touches were added with a framed canvas for the bottom and some accent lighting for the front of the box.

Now that the show has come and gone, we have come up with even more ideas for how we can make the display case even better for the next show.
