    Talking Boxes without nails

    In the past two years I have purchased many beautiful wood boxes off of a website called http://www.artisansmarket.com The boxes are made by a gentleman named Bob Dicky and all of them are beautifully crafted and made from a variety of different wood. There are no nails in any of the boxes.
    Last Christmas my husband ordered several to give away as client gifts. We put handmade note cards in them and they were a huge hit!

    I really love this technique and am now looking to add to my collection. If any body else out there has a unique box that they make can you let me know I would like to look at your work.
    thanks.

    Default No Nails!!!

    No nails !!!!!
    Does that mean I have to buy my own nails and then put them in the box?

    Also the fact that the poster lives in the same place as the owners of the website!

    Default Thanks for the info

    I don't know if I am replying in the right spot. but some of you gave me some good leads to more boxes for my collection. Thanks a lot for all the input! The Tony Ward boxes are outstanding and very unique.
    For all of you who replied that I was pushing Bob Dicky's boxes, of course I am this man makes wonderful presentation boxes and jewelry boxes. I own several and thought you all would like to see his work. especially his pagoda boxes.
