Anniversary Shadow Box

Here's a great project by Erika from Miss Crafty Pants that might add a romantic touch to your home decor...

Erika writes,

My husband and I just celebrated our 12 year anniversary. Although my husband had already spoiled me with gifts and flowers, we agreed to do things a little differently this year. We wanted to work on something together that would last for years to come. I envisioned a "Anniversary Shadow Box" that we could hang above our bed that I could look at daily. We gathered the pictures and trinkets we'd wanted to add to our box. Then we measured the wood accordingly."

Her entire tutorial can be found at Crystal's Craft Spot.

Here was the finished product, created to match their bedroom decor.

I think what I love most about this was that they made it together! I think this, along with the memories made during it's creation, will be a treasure for a very long time.
