Tardis...or just a mad woman with a box?

It started with just a box...but the fun of transforming shallow boxes into a treasure trove of little display units is just irresistible. This is one I made for my friend B who is as mad a Whovian as I am.
The shelving is just balsa wood cut to size and glued in place, then painted. The layers and light on top are similar and the white decrorations inside are made with a white gel pen, a ruler and a steady hand! It's about 30cms high and was empty when I gave it to her 'cos I know she's got lots of tiny Whovian things around the house to fill it...and if it's not quite full, thats just an opportunity to get/make some!

Obviously I had to play with it first to make sure it was fit for purpose, so I filled it with some of the toys I had collected from the front of the comic a while ago. I have another, more sinister, Who project in mind for them!
