Marine Shadow Box

Furnished content.

Come May I''l have a new son in-law Kyle. He served 6 years in the Marines and accumulated a few remembrances. He keeps them on his dresser so I couldn't get them from my daughter without him knowing so she took a couple pictures and got some sizes for me. I made the box big enough (I hope) to hold them so when I give it to him for Christmas he can add them or I can add them for him. My daughter says he's very proud of them so I think he will like it. I added the flag, a small plague and a couple rounds I had. I can't wait to give it to him.
Oak with glass top and maple splines. 9 1/2'' x 11'' x 2 1/2''. Finished with Danish oil. I used 4 earth magnets to keep it shut. I think it was a bit too much but it's not going to open by accident.
