Laura’s Altered Book

I might paint the scene behind the door (the hinges work!) so that there’s some color, but I haven’t decided yet.  I have another month to alter it before I have to send it along. 

The door was extremely difficult, and I had a hard time making everything fit, even after measuring carefully several times.  I made the mullions and the frame out of thin scraps left over from our maple flooring. The glass is a sheet of plexiglass that I trimmed to fit.
