Audra Pangle used detailed laser cut trim to frame her special package Christmas room box that features pieces dear to her family.
"This is my first room box and first holiday box. There are many personal touches from top to bottom: in the chair is a holiday edition of 'The Miniature Way'; a letter to Santa written by my daughter when she was six is miniaturized on the table with cookies for Santa and carrots for Rudolph; a Hallmark ornament leg lamp from 'A Christmas Story' I turned into a working lamp; and stockings with my kid's names.
"On the left wall is a sleigh from my Grandma's miniature collection. She passed away 12 years ago and left me her miniatures. The rug and wreath are also from her collection. The cuckoo clock is very similar to one my husband's grandparents had in their home. I made a false wall - copied from one my Grandma had in one of her houses.
"I have pictures of mine and my husband's grandparents and my father when he was in the Army - I have his picture in all my homes.
