Personal Decorated Shelf

this is a shelf that represents what makes me ME!
I did this as a summer school art project and I put my HEART AND SOUL into this thing! I made the flower from sculpey from scratch, and I sanded down the entire box to get rid of the old vinyl coating. I took me a bout three hours to PAINT this thing! each section represents a part of me. at the bottom, I made myself my own personal beach with sand and plexiglass to give myself a view.
