Framed with a Rosemaled scroll and floral border, this dancing couple provides the entertainment for this shadow box that can either sit on a shelf, hang on a wall or be used as a serving tray!
This set includes the unpainted frame, a flat bottom layer, and a laser cut top layer. It also comes with 6 picture frame holders and screws (see photos) to hold the assembled piece together.
The frame of the shadow box is made out of quality pine with a routed edge for trim. The top layer is baltic birch, precision cut with intricate detail. The bottom layer is also high quality baltic birch. The design packet includes a color coded pattern for ease of application on each of the layers. Apply the pattern using standard techniques.
