Jonah’s House - JP1052
The whimsical shape of the whale suggested a more playful approach to decorating this piece. This design idea will also adapt easily to a small round or oval shaker box with the lettering going around the band of the lid, the frolicking whales around the sides of the box and the old seaman’s head on the top.
This whale box is made from poplar. This bundle includes the design shown. Whale box is 7" long x 3 1/2" wide and 2 1/2" high.
