The box is made from reclaimed wood, and she is super happy with it.
I appreciate that you did the hinges properly instead of just screwing them to the back.
I tried doing them properly, but managed to fuck up the alignment. So what you are seeing is a fix, they are actually mounted on the out side. Sorry to disappoint you.
But your next hinges will be better yet. And I learned what to do the next time I mess up my hinge install. Which is likely the next time I attempt a hinge install. 😉
FYI - In .y experience it’s a bit small for a good seed collection.
The proper size would be around 1/2 of your house.
Great idea. I might copy it.
Yes please do! I didn’t make any plans for it just sort of designed it as I went. Otherwise I would have shared the plans.
If you like sharing, (in the future) you can always take photos and put it up on instructables.com.
How did you do the hinges like that?
You try to do them on the inside, fail , then mount them on the outside and insert different color of wood to make it seem intentional.
And here I am, keeping my seeds in recycled baggies in an old cigar box. :)
Such a lovely thing to make! It’s very nice!
