Engagement Box


It was a secret. It was a puzzle. It needed a secret compartment. Fantastic project.

For the book I made a series of envelopes which would be filled with haiku, sewed them using the coptic stitch and inserted the back cover into a pocket connected to the "bottom" of the box. At this section there is a ribbon which lies begging to be pulled. Behold! An engagement ring.

Note: Ring shown not actual engagement ring.
