You've helped me in the past, I need you again...

"LEGACY" is almost ready.  The instructions are done, I'm now preparing materials and and ordering threads, Next Stop... YOU!
So, here is where I need your help: This design is just about 3.5" x 3.5".  I would love to see it in a lacquered box, so I've gone-a-looking. Would you be willing to pay an additional $80-$90 for a box to put this design on?  Since I rarely send my work out to be finished, and since I like to come up with my own ways to finish a piece, (such as the little red photo album I made, see photo), I don't always know what others are looking for.  So let me know, please.  The teal colorway inserted in the top of a teal colored lacquer box, would it be something you would spend quite a bit of money on?





and as for my nameless new baby, I finally know what the border is going to be! I'm so thrilled to have found it! After tearing out 6 different options, it has clicked!  I'm going to give you a little sneak peak but that's the last you will see of this one until it is all done.

re: lacquer box. Not me. But then I'm a lot like you with finishing, it appears. I'd rather "do my own thing", usually ...or wait until I stumble across just the right thing in a thrift or antique store.

See here for lacquer boxes for sale, BTW. Just discovered this, after I left my previous comment.

I would spend the money on a well-made box to go with the piece even though I have several pieces in boxes. I now switch things out due to seasons and my mood.

Love the design, but $80 for a box seems steep to me.

Wouldnt pay extra. Needlepoint pieces aren't cheep and pay extra 80$ + extra postage is too much. Would look for something local.
