So the fabulous grocery store I manage has a gourmet cheese bar. My cheese Chick likes to make these little baked bries. She wraps them up in pastry dough and decorates them, but alas she leaves behind a carnage of little balsa wood brie boxes. I though to myself, "Is there anyway I can NOT take these home and make something out of them?" The answer is "NO"! So when thinking of something to make I thought of the recent Project Runway challenge where the designers had to go to Coney Island to use the Circus as their theme. So I took a little trip to Coney Island myself and dreamed up this little piece that can hang on a wall, cabinet, or door for a great little summertime fun!

Thanks for looking, I am working on a Jane Austen one now of course. I am thinking of making a starter kit to sell in my etsy shop for these. Luckily I have a somewhat unlimited supply!
