"A lovely painted butterfly box with pretty colors and heart shape."
This wood puzzle box is painted with very pretty colors, a lovely butterfly and flowers and greenery. I like it very much and appreciate the heart shape too. I think these puzzle boxes are so interesting and yet easy enough for me to solve!
