I'd made the jar as nice as I could with felty petals, fat with pollen, and more than
enough nail holes in the lid to keep the bees from perishing, since for all I knew, people might come back one day as the very thing they killed.
Was wondering what you thought of using caulk to fill
nail holes and to create a seal between each plank — recessed
enough that the plank motif is still evidence but it will give a uniform depth (and fill in those few places where the wood was chipped — these cheap planks do have some duds)?
