I had some free time this weekend, so I finished the shadowbox for the owners of the 1804 house I started detecting a few months ago.
This is a great way for some of you to show your appreciation to the owners of the properties you detect at, and it can be done for less than $15.
All you need is a shadowbox ($13.00 at Michael's on sale), some silicone or tacky (flexible type) glue, and about 1 hour of time. I just lay everything out on the black backing, arrange how you like it, then glue each piece in place one at a time. Let it dry over night, and attached the back to the box. Finished!
Let's face it, there is nothing here worth much $, but when grouped together it becomes a piece of art that any property owner would be proud to display.
I don't mind giving up a worn Barber & Merc dime to make someone happy, not to mention the friendship you'll be making, and possible future references to other properties.
Have a good one,
MM
