"To All, The wine box is beautiful - I know the 50th Wedding Anniversary Couple will be extremely pleased with our gift decision. The only thing I would ask you to do the next time I order (and I will because this is truly a nice keepsake gift) is to somehow put a clear type product over the Aspen and Baltic wood to maybe darker it up a bit. The wood is a little too light. I was reading online a product for the Aspen / Baltic wood that might do this, but my wife said leave well enough alone. I had wood cabinets I put in the garage and the wood was very light too, and I used Tung Oil and wow did it make the wood stand out. It's not a stain just a coating. If you do know a product, let me know. Otherwise, we are extremely pleased with the workmanship and your products. Just got your email with the Keepsake Shoe Boxes - Another great idea for gift giving - I will be in touch. Tx - Bob and Linda Ferenchko
