Includes FREE personalization!! This hand painted, full sized hardwood chair features a whimsical underwater ocean theme. While hammerhead sharks circle at the surface, light filters down through the deepening water to illuminate the half-buried hull of a sunken rowboat. Curious fish flit around the the flotsam of the wreck and dart through the vibrant coral reefs. A school of rainbow colored fish rushes by, wrapping around the side of the chair onto the back, coming closer to the viewer before changing course and disappearing. This piece was created for a young boy (can you guess his name?), and is intended to see him through childhood and beyond. Using all non-toxic paints and sealers, it's perfect for use as a dining chair, a desk chair, or as a wonderful accent piece. The designs seen here can be customized to suit your color scheme or your theme--each piece is one of a kind and made to order. This piece is made to order, and customizations are welcome (additional fees may apply if customizations exceed the scope of the original design). Contact me about elements and colors that would make this piece meaningful to YOUR child, and let's see what useable art we can create just for you! Each piece is signed and numbered for authenticity. I use high-quality hardwood pieces from Maywood Furniture. Dimensions are (WxDxH) 18x18x40.

For Keepsake Box, Memory Box, Treasure BoxIf you want a very special gift for a child or grandchild this is the place and the person who can do that for you. She is talented, good natured, imaginative, and devoted to doing a wonderful job on your project. I cannot speak highly enough about Lara and her work. I have ordered three treasure chests so far and hope the grandchildren just keep coming so I can order more. Another idea would be to make one for yourself to store all the wonderful souvenirs, tickets, menus etc. from a special trip. I know she will make the best souvenir you can buy with pictures of the holiday location so inside is all the stuff collected there and outside fabulous original pictures of that place. I think I will do that for myself.

For Keepsake Box, Memory Box, Treasure BoxLara was terrific to work with. In record time she created two large treasure chests for my granddaughters which they have already fallen in love with. They are two and four and wanted a place for their treasures. The decoration was chosen by my daughter-in-law and Lara did a bang up job putting all the ideas into the design. I have already ordered a third box for another granddaughter who is three. This is such a lovely idea. It is something they will keep forever with their childhood treasures.
