Money Box, Part Two

So, I figured I owed it to Aaron to show you the finished money box he made for Punk. So, here it is. Pretty, huh?

We determined right away that there had to be some way to tell which compartment was for which purpose (give, spend, or save). So, I found some craft foam and made labels. Which also cut down on the noise when money is thrown in! For now, we're letting Punk decide how much he wants to put in each part. The "Give" is empty because he took his "give" money to church today!

Alright, I don't care how much time or money it takes. I want one. I wish they made those commercially. Aaron did a beautiful job. Just beautiful! And your foam inserts are just the perfect cherry on top!

Talk To Me

I blog for myself and my kids and I would do it even if no one else cared, but I do like to hear from you (and think it's a wee bit creepy of you to voyeurize us without my knowing it). So, please leave a comment from time to time, or email me anytime at xawilsons@hotmail.com. Much obliged, I'm sure.
