As a relatively new woodworker, here is my first attempt at making a Jewelry box.

Featuring:

Golden Oak stained Oak case
Zebrawood drawer fronts and dovetail joints
Walnut turned knobs, case back and drawer dividers
Tan velour lined drawers

All finished with 3 coats of tongue oil.

Very challenging. Made for our 9th anniversery upon meeting my wife.

Thanks for looking! If pictures do not show there in my pic gallery

Matt

Thanks, Scott, and thanks for suggesting the drawer dividers be a little taller.

My wife agreed and I reworked
