Last year Brendan and I got married and for our wedding my mother in law made us 1000 cranes as a good luck wedding gift.
She housed them all on coat hangers as seen below.
For a year we kept one of the coat hangers on our wall for display but I wanted to displays with a little more love. So I build (albiet shoddily) a shadow box.
Very happy with the outcome. Will add some picture below, I’m sorry I didn’t take more progress pictures.
MDF customwood sheet for the backing 3mm
3 bed boards ( Im not even joking)
An acrilic sheet 3mm for the front
6 assorted screws (forgot mine on the day, made do with ones I found at hsbne)
Large nails
4 hooks to hold the coat hanger
Black and white paint.
Ink stamping for the words at the bottom.
I’m sorry I don’t have any progress photos. But I have this one photo I took before ether acrilic sheet was applied. I removed one column of cranes to lessen crowding and hung them up in craft punk so you have a little piece of my wedding haha!
When I said I haven’t seen them, I meant more in the sense that that last couple of times I’ve been at the space, I’ve been too busy to step foot in Craftpunk I’m sure you put them in a good spot.
