While perusing through an antiques shop in Yazoo City, Mississippi, my fianc? and I came across some beautiful woodwork items. One of the items was a small yet stunning wooden jewelry box with a mosaic-style image of a tree on the lid. The leaves were depicted in a beautiful way using pieces of wood arranged in various directions to create a mosaic effect. The tree appeared to be a collage of different patterns and sizes of wood pieces. We purchased the box and I knew that it would come in handy as inspiration for a ketubah design one day soon.
