green box poetry

One IKEA wooden storage box

rubbed down and undercoated and rubbed down again (twice)

painted dark green

after much debate I decided on a spiderweb design

after I came across this lovely spiderweb poem by Shel Silverstein

I was reading somewhere about his classic children's book The Giving Tree and then came across the poem and decided to incorporate it into the pattern. The box had been sitting around the garage for several years ... no particular use in mind, just for the hell of it.
