I made this keepsake box for my baby daughter. I used teak - something my dad used to let me work on when I was little. It is a wonderful wood to work with, I love the grain and the oiliness of the wood. This is the first time I ever tried to make dovetails, and I am moderately happy with the result. Next time will be better.

The inside is laid out with soft black felt to prevent anything inside from getting damaged and to make the box look more luxurious. I added two small rare earth magnets to the top lid to make it snap close. It was finished with lacquer.
