Hi Jen, I just got back from UPS thought I had it made. I've been looking for a box big enough for two days, called them and they said if they didn't have one big enough they'd make one to fit. Took the steps in, they measured them and said $149. NOT. So I brought them home, split them in two. The top part, cover and string handle are in a box and the bottom piece will just be bound in brown paper and will be sent through United Postal Service. When you get them use glue to bind the two pieces back together, you should be able to tell how they should go by the old glue spots. LOL DO NOT USE LIQUID GOLD. Just some sort of construction glue. For some reason Liquid Gold eats the foam away. While the glue is drying I use masking tape to make sure the two pieces are held together tightly then leave the masking tape on for better stability. Let me know when you get them!! Plan on heading into the PO in a few minutes so will let you know later what the total is. Thanks, give Murphy big :hugs: from us.
