Found a shadow box at Goodwill, had a nonworking NES controller, little bit of white foam and superglue and *BAM* that's what we have! I am thinking about doing more...of different items, don't know for sure yet, though. Lemme know what you think!

On a side note...not sure if the pictures are displaying...I am very new at this (as you can see).

awesome work though, interesting idea.

Nice!! I still wish I could find something to do with a shadow box. I don't have any retro controllers though... unless you count the n64 ones. hehe.

I would have first made it symetrical, second...possibly shortened the cord or seen if it would have wrapped around the inside of the frame(sorta like its own little frame if you will), third... not bunched the screws together, maybe put them in each corner.....its all about being symetrical
