Funny Story
I have a bunch of stuff collected from travels in Africa. Most of it my ex-wife did not want on the walls so I was hidden away in closets and boxes. One day we go to a Mall in Tucson and wander into a furnishing store. We go different directions and then she comes to ask me to look at something with her. I follow her to another part of the store and she points out a shadow box containing two fake African Spears constructed entirely of wood for a paltry $300. I just had to laugh! When she asked why I told her we have the real thing at home and I can build her a shadow box for next to nothing. It was not important to her after then so the box was never built. The only things she allowed up were some of the masks, the tourist ones, not the real antique ones that smell "like Africa"...
