Shadow Box For Retiring Military
This is a shadow box made to look like swimming flippers for the Coast Guard Helicopter Rescue Swimmer, who will be receiving it for retirement. The piece is made from cherry and stained dark to bring out the natural beauty of the wood. The crew that requested this for their co-worker will be placing the ribbons and medals once it gets to them. They'll present it at the retirement event for the individual. The shadow box is made to hang on the wall. There is plexiglass inset to protect the medals and ribbons. It's removable with small screws. It's always a pleasure to work with the military community. This job was an honor. If you need a different emblem please let us know. We can customize it to your branch of service.

Sep 27, 2016The Palmer's were just wonderful to work with and my wooden sign which I had them put an old fashioned phone on and a message of "Don't forget your cell phone!", came out perfect.... It is just a great piece to remind me to not leave the house without my phone. I just love it and it is adorable. Thank you Coleen and Bob! Jan-Marie Robertson

Aug 3, 2016We are extremely happy with the finished product. They were very professional and thoughtful during the whole process. We sent multiple photos to be carved on the sides of the urn and we are so pleased, the carvings look just like our son. The details are beautiful. The craftsmanship is wonderful. I wanted something unique and special and not only is the urn unique and special but the experience of working with Palmer Union Design was as well.

Feb 16, 2015Colleen was very easy to work with. She kept communication open and was very timely in her responses. She answered all of my questions without any issues. I asked for adjustments on the final piece and she had them done without a second thought. The final product was amazing! Very beautiful and just perfect. Beautifully carved wood, stained and painted the colors of the wedding. I'm sure my friend will love it as her cake topper and a keepsake after her wedding. I'm really excited for her to see it on her big day! Thank you Bob and Colleen!
