Shadow Boxes

Anyone can design and make a shadow box to preserve and display memories, a professional framer, an artist, craftsperson or hobbyist. Everyone has valuable or memorable objects that can be preserved and enjoyed for many generations.  This is a book that provides enough instructions and ideas to enable the construction of shadow boxes.  Everything from the simple to the complicated is explained and illustrated.  Design, parts of a box, how to order chops and joins, altering mouldings to increase depth and heft, spacing, glazing and attaching objects are just some of the subjects covered in the book.  Preserving the objects being framed is covered throughout the book.
