I'm looking for some honest criticism for this project, as I want it to be as close to perfect as possible.
It's one of the lids I'm working on, but I recently found out new information about the recipient.
I thought this was just going to be another round box, but I found out that it's going to be used as an urn for a little girl that just passed, over the weekend. She lived a very short life, but she was a very happy little girl, that brought joy to everyone around her. Upon hearing this, it saddened me and also made me feel honored to be chosen to make such a special piece.
Finding out this new information, I knew the size I had was entirely too small, so I contacted a local funeral home to enquire about sizing. The size was increased to 6" diameter and 8" tall. There will be a brass plate that I will engrave with the name, applied to the face of the box.
I'm going to make this as a gift and I want the couple to be happy with it, without seeing it first. So, if there should be any changes, I need to get it done, so I can get this finished as soon as I can. I don't have the artistic eye that many on here have.
I appreciate any help you care to provide.
