The cabinet and desk chair I was making are finished,
and I placed them inside a lantern
I’m giving it to my husband as a gift for when he retires
On the chair lies a fairy tale book, and on the floor are
toy blocks as a reference to the grandchildren
Except for the teacup and the flowerpot, I made everything myself
The pot holding the pencils was originally a bottle cap,
and I made the clock from an old button
Everything else I downloaded, resized, and printed on photo paper
I also incorporated his hobbies into the scene
I reduced and copied the printables to make a banner, then cut them out
And glued them all around the lantern
Crafts made by my grandson — reduced in size
Made a toy block box lid from stir sticks and a printable
