The Poetry display is a wooden box filled with styrofoam and foliage. The letters have been laminated onto scrapbook paper, cut into equal size squares attached to small dowel rods stuck through the foliage into the styrofoam.

Book cover image laminated onto cardstock the size appropriate to stand in the book stand.

Jill uses this in place of the actual book in the book stand.
