"Washed Away" When you can't get to the beach, this lovely 4" square box will bring it to you! A gentle wave washes over a vivid red sea star, and over the edges of the box, so realistically painted you might reach for a towel to dry it off! The wave washes around two sides of the box, foaming over the corners, blending into a cool aqua that hints at the deepening ocean. This painstakingly hand painted, sturdy little box is handy for storing all sorts of small items, makes a great desk organizer or tabletop accent piece, or a thoughtful gift for that person who has everything! And because I create each one by hand, no two will be exactly alike, ensuring you a one-of-a-kind piece of usable art. The box is handmade by Designcraft Industries out of solid poplar, and each one is hand-painted with original artwork by Lara Eve Designs, using all non toxic acrylic paints and sealers. Colors can be customized to suit your needs, and additional sizes are also available (for additional cost), just ask!

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.
