Music Box

My Dad made this beautiful music box for me out of a neighbor's black walnut tree that he rescued from being turned into fire wood!

I love how you did this to show the music mechanism too. Very clever editing and terrific shot. This is the second time you have used music notes. How do you do that?

@grammyn Thanks... I stole the idea from your photo of the mistletoe tree. The first time I used the music notes they came from the "Special Characters" menu because I used them as text in the title. I have no idea how to find those on a PC... :) This time I used the stickers in Picnik.
