Why it is so expensive to find and build a shadow box with all my ribbons and medals? Are there any cheaper suggestions?

Medals of America is way too rich for my blood! Waitng on St. Louis, MO. to send...taken years and no reply yet. Also need a box that like to fit everything. This is my legacy to my daughter and my local VFW post.

Personalized shadow boxes are custom luxury items. Of course they're expensive. The medals and decorations alone are several hundred ( I suppose that depends on the persons career, some careers are more expensive than others). If you want cheap, go to Michaels and pick up a shadow box and some double sided Velcro.

Depends on what kind of material you use, and where you get the ribbons and medals.

You can order what you need through the PX/BX online look up aafees. I built my own shadow box. lots of videos online that will show you how and some clubs on face book where folks with give tips and tricks.

I got my medals at Medals of America & put them in a box I got at Hobby Lobby. You can also find shadow boxes at either Michael's or AC Moore.
