Horse Mane Shadowbox

Here is a shadowbox we finished this week.  It is the mane from two horses that our client has loved and lost.  These manes were wrapped at the top with a piece of leather, then we sewed that leather to the light green mat.

Detail of matting

We raised the top mat high enough so the glass wouldn't touch the manes and then used our computerized mat cutter to write the horses names under their manes and also wrote "Happy Trails" at the top.
We also added a debossing design on the top map.  It's subtle, but the client loved it.
Do you have some special memories that you'd like to preserve and enjoy everyday?  We can help!
