Choose wood. We can use repurposed wood from previous projects, boards from broken down pallets, or We can purchase and cut new wood. Consider what your box will be used for.
• For example, if you're making a jewelry box, consider thin pieces of cedar, ash or oak. It will be easier to make a smaller box with thinner wood. Save larger pieces or boards for bigger boxes. This will also prevent We from having to do too much trimming.
