The name of this simple box, folded from a hexagon, comes from its jagged edge. It is closely related to Bowl Box.
A fancy present box for a 30th birthday. Delivered to a stylish cocktail party in the hills of Perth.
Inside a dense chocolate mudcake filled and covered in white chocolate ganache.
I have wanted to make a present box cake for a while and was very happy that I got my chance!
Lucky find in Leakin park. Gave it a piece of chicken and continued on our walk. By the time we got back both the chicken and the turtle was gone.

Isn't it beautiful in Summer, to see houses, walls, windows and facades, decorated and cheered up with flowers.
Some people just do not have a garden, what a brilliant solution, for all of us!
Do we even think about that now or is it just another given?
It suddenly dawned on me.
I think there is a trend though, to also have autumn and winter plants and fun.
Oh please, ANYTHING to make our moods brighter, lol.
Thank you, M, (*_*)

This is a practice shot for this weeks SSC challenge - looking down. Two old storage boxes from a charity shop and some of the semi-precious stones collected from the floor of the Scratch Patch in Cape Town many years ago.
Whitby signal box, photographed on 3 August 1981.
From wikipedia:
"In 1854, the Y&NM helped form the North Eastern Railway, who later added two more platforms (also replaced by the supermarket) to help deal with traffic from the other branch lines that served Whitby; the Esk Valley Line finally opened throughout to a junction at Grosmont in 1863. The coast line from Loftus opened in 1883 and from Scarborough in 1885. Block signalling replaced the time interval system in 1876 and brought Whitby an unusual three storey signal box (to make it high enough to see over the adjacent goods shed)."
HAPPY EARTH DAY!
100% biodegradable fiberboard water containers are starting to be a common site in and around the Navajo Nation. These earth friendly boxes are at a convenience store in Bluff, San Juan County, Utah. It's definitely time to start finding and using alternatives to single use plastic. Of course a reusable water bottle would be even better!
In Amsterdam Noord there is a crazy place called NDSM-wharf. It's crazy what's inside the NDSM building and the area surrounding it is crazy as well.
As the official web site states, from the 1920s to the 1980s NDSM was one of the biggest shipyards in the world, then it was converted into "Kunststad", an "Art city", and now it's full of weird buildings, arts installation, and whatever creativity could mean.
This picture was taken in the neighborhood, I couldn't resist to those brilliant colors and the box-shaped houses.

The slight dark patch on the left will be the lattice steel mesh panels of Orlando Street bridge, a dreaded curse which has been resolved over the years by many people enlarging the gaps or even cutting out small sections to allow camera lenses access!!
Virtually everything in this photo is now a memory. The forties. I bought my fxxxt house on Crescent Road, where the sheds had been, just so I could watch the 40s from bed! LOL. Nearly true. Bolton East Junction signal box, and indeed the junction (for the Rochdale line) too, the semaphores, the massive LMS goods warehouse, the associated yard, the station building and clock tower, and most of the track too, and the steel traffic to Watsons.
Still remaining are Bolton Town Hall clocktower, a replacement Orlando Street bridge, Trinity Church, although no longer a church, the Railway pub in front, and the old GUS building on the left although its appearance has changed, and the old school building just visible in the distance on the right, its on Great Moor Street.

Actually this phone box is not as desolate as it looks as it is next a road at Studland where traffic queues to board the Sandbanks Ferry.
The red telephone box is a public telephone kiosk designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and is a familiar sight on the streets of the United Kingdom, Malta, Bermuda and Gibraltar. Despite a reduction in their numbers in recent years, the traditional British red telephone box can still be seen in many places throughout the UK, and in current or former British colonies around the world. The colour red was chosen to make them easy to spot.
The red phone box is often seen as an iconic British symbol throughout the world.
This one is the much used K6 (kiosk number six) design which In 1935 was designed to commemorate the silver jubilee of King George V. K6 was the first red telephone kiosk to be extensively used outside London, and many thousands were deployed in virtually every town and city, replacing most of the existing kiosks and establishing thousands of new sites. It has become a British icon, although it was not universally loved at the start. The red colour caused particular local difficulties and there were many requests for less visible colours. The red that is now much loved was then anything but, and the Post Office was forced into allowing a less strident grey with red glazing bars scheme for areas of natural and architectural beauty. Ironically, some of these areas that have preserved their telephone boxes have now painted them red.
Studland Bay is protected from the prevailing southwesterly winds and storms by Ballard Down and Handfast Point, the chalk headland that separates Studland from Swanage Bay to the south. In the 17th century there began a process of sand accumulation in the bay and along the South Haven Peninsula stretching north, resulting in natural land reclamation and the creation or expansion of the bay's beaches and its sand dune system.
The beaches at Studland Bay are amongst the most popular in the country, and on rare hot summer weekends they fill up with thousands of people. The beaches are situated in civil parish of Studland on the Isle of Purbeck in the English county of Dorset. The South East Dorset Conurbation of Poole, Bournemouth & Boscombe lies on the other side of Poole Harbour, resulting in the beaches being relatively accessible to a large population via the Sandbanks Ferry. North of the visitor centre the beach and dunes are owned and managed by the National Trust, who have restricted parking provision at the site to prevent overcrowding. A short northern stretch of beach is reserved as a naturist beach.
Since the early 20th century the supply of sand to the bay has depleted and erosion is occurring so that, if natural processes are uninterrupted, the coastline may in time retreat back to its previous line, visible as a line of higher ground between Redend Point and the hill east of the Knoll House Hotel. In January 2004 the BBC television series The National Trust investigated the conflicts between different groups of people who use the beach and heath at Studland. The series particularly covered the debate about coastal management, with the Trust proposing to remove defensive walls to allow natural processes to shape the coastline, though this would result in loss of some land and property.
The final stage of the South West Coast Path (if walked in the conventional anti-clockwise direction, starting at Minehead, Somerset) follows Studland Bay and ends at South Haven Point, where a sculpture marks the end.
The actual village of Studland lies 2.5 miles (4 km) to the south of here and it is famous for these beaches and a nature reserve. It lies within the Purbeck administrative district, and is located about 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the town of Swanage, over a steep chalk ridge, and 3 miles (4.8 km) south of the South East Dorset conurbation at Sandbanks, but separated from it by Poole Harbour and the Sandbanks Ferry. The parish includes Brownsea Island within the harbour. In the 2011 Census the parish had a population of 425, though many of the houses in the village are holiday homes, second homes, or guest houses, and the village's population varies depending upon the season.
Sandbanks Ferry is a vehicular chain ferry which crosses the entrance of Poole Harbour and its route runs from Sandbanks to Studland and in doing so connects the coastal parts of the towns of Bournemouth and Poole with Swanage and the Isle of Purbeck. This avoids a 25 mile journey by road.
The ferry, along with the this road that connects with it on the Studland side, is owned by the Bournemouth - Swanage Motor Road and Ferry Company, which initiated the ferry crossing in 1923, and a toll is charged for use of both road and ferry. The current toll for a car is £3.50 each way. The current ferry boat, named Bramble Bush Bay, was put into service in 1994 and can carry up to 48 cars. It is the fourth vessel to operate on the route.
The entrance to Poole Harbour is a particularly busy waterway, used by many private and leisure craft along with commercial vessels including large ferries serving routes to France. This often affects the ability of the ferry to maintain its nominal 20 minute frequency. Wilts and Dorset buses cross the ferry frequently throughout the day, on route 50 from Bournemouth to Swanage.
Today's art is often meant to be interpreted by the beholder. So what is the message sent by this object: Art in boxes? Boxed in art? Many boxes of art? Art is risking to fall?
Whatever; I like this sculpture!
dinner was delicious last night and we managed not to to disturb Georgina in her new box. She doesn't know it but in the box was a device to help trim her voluminous fur coat, we are going to try it later, wish us luck :)
Origami Mazu boxes. These are very traditional origami boxes. The orange was folded from a 8.5 in piece of computer paper, the open and tied ones was folded from 6 in. or 15cm. origami paper and the little pink one was from a small square of computer paper.

Lovely cottage apparently used for advertising on chocolate boxes situated at Thornton-Le-Dale near Whitby
Most of my Superstar era dolls came with their boxes, (for some reason it's only really that era that I have to get dolls that are MIB or NRFB!) and while most get released from their boxes and put on display, especially if the box is somewhat damaged, there are some I actually prefer to display in their boxes, as I just love the whole presentation. Beauty Secrets Christie was on display for a while and had fun playing with her, but she has now joined her friend Beauty Secrets Barbie (the 1980 New York convention edition - I have another regular one that was de-boxed and is now on display) on that wall of boxed beauties in my Dolly room.
- www.kevin-palmer.com - I always used to wonder what these stacks of white boxes are that I would see in many rural areas. They are beehives.
Box Turtles usually just lay one clutch of eggs per year. They dig nests several inches below the soil. Incubation usually lasts three months, but is somewhat dependent on the soil’s temperature and moisture. As in other turtle species, the temperature of the nest determines the sex of the hatchlings. Warmer nests tend to produce females, while cooler nests produce males. Eastern box turtles reach maturity at 10 to 20 years old and can live to be more than 100 years old. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
