Hi  all

Just before my Bee supply company went bankrupt, I looked into this and
although my display would have held a couple of dozen jars... The principle
holds good.

I showed pictures of various 'comic' bees to children in a local infant
school.

The one that got the most oohs & aahs became a template for 'fretwork'
plywood ends to the shelves. (produced by a router using a template)

Perhaps what we teach young children about bees needs adjusting, because
only the bumble bee shapes and styles created any impact on the kids.

I cannot say how effective the idea was, as bancruptcy overtook the project
before any were actually made.
