I have been using dominoes as a 'knob' to pull the lid open but I've also started using these great puddle stones. Not sure that's what they're called but that's what they make me think of. I love playing with the papers and seeing what combinations I can come up with. A lot of the time I won't even like how something is turning out and then all of a sudden I'll add one more thing and then that does it.
I think I'd like to try to make a cigar box guitar one of these days. I think that project will make me even more glad than I already am that I have a handy hubby.
Happy Crafty Tuesday!

Adorable and clever as usual! I got my dad a book on making cigar box guitars for Christmas. I'll let you know how he reviews it.
You know, I haven't gotten down and dirty with glue and paper in a long time...it'd be fun! I doubt it would turn out as cute as yours, tho. You have the knack!
what is a cigar box guitar? sounds like something i must have :)
love this box...you are crafty!
i need to have a bit of a look around to see more!
Thanks gals.
Christy- a cigar box guitar is pretty much just what it sounds like... A guitar made from a cigar box.
Pretty!
My friend made a really cool semi-acoustic bass from a cracker box. He's got a blog about making musical instruments here - http://rockfreakinsolid.com/
The posts about 'the 18 rule' might help you with the fretboard :)
