This time it’s another version of the shuttle braiding storage box. Sometimes, I unconsciously create a series of works that are interconnected. The row of hidden little cat paws is a deliberate design detail

This is so beautiful. I love boxes and the cat and sewing motifs are so yummy. You just have to pick it up. A nice variation on a yarn ball holder.

So cute! Love those tiny paws. And another tiny sewing machine, too! That join detail is something extra special.
This is both pretty and cute! Practical, too. What do you call that join style?
This is an ancient way of join style called “pearls and shells,” which might not be translated accurately. However, I have another piece with a more detailed explanation, which I will show you later.

It looks just like “pearls and shells”!
Lovely! The wood contrast & the burnt-in details combine really nicely.
Gorgeous! Oh i need to get back to more woodworking, you really inspire me!
Absolutely beautiful. The cat is purr-fection, and the addition of the little paws was amazing.

Your work is really beautiful! The little cat paws are adorable 
What beautiful boxes with practical uses, too. I love the little hidden cat paws, but I think my favourite detail is the little sewing machine 
I would love to learn more about your process, where you learned to make these, what kind of wood you used, how you cut each piece, etc.
I’ve been interested in making things out of wood for a while now, but I’m intimidated because I don’t know where to start
