There are only 161 boxes in the country with the Edward VIII cypher, this one in Winchester could do with a bit of tender care.
This is my take on a 3 string cigar box slide guitar.
This was my first build of a cigar box guitar, and as you can probably guess i didn't use a cigar box and instead i used an old wooden chess board i had in the house, which i think gave the guitar a fantastic look right from the start.
I pieced together ideas from various sources but mainly a great book i got online which was very helpful.
As i was finding it quite difficult to get my hands on hardwood i had to use what i could and due to that i decided to make this one fretless as i couldn't a suitable piece.
The overall cost of this guitar was around £30 and sounds really cool.
Materials -
wooden chess board
Red Meranti for the neck
Oak for the headstock add on and bridges.
Now just to learn how to play it before i build my next!
I only need five more blocks, but I think I may start to arrange these a bit so I can see how much white I want in those last five blocks. I got a kick out of the blocks on the top right...just a half inch square surrounded by white :)
Boxes stamped with Yellow Owl Workshop's Cityscape set. Very happy-making.

The optics are rather simple, so image quality is a bit better than a toy camera, but not significantly so. Photographs can have the dreamy soft focus like Holga pictures, but unlike toy cameras, image quality is fairly sharp throughout the photograph with little or no vignetting around the edges. Also, the large negative size is a definite plus, just print contact sheets from Synchro-Box negatives.
My latest work: 3 box shelves turned into shadow box assemglages. I collaged the back and attached it to box shelves, then added shells. A nice way to welcome the warm days ahead.
The bottom box is the last one I have left, available in my etsy shop.
A view of the signals and signal boxes looking north from Leicester station. It doesn't look like this any more!
For years I have watched this storm battered little island off Long Beach and wondered what it would be like to live there for a day, or two, a week, a year....
The signal box at Holywell Crossing on the Blyth & Tyne route before closure and demolition. Although designated Holywell it was actually situated at Backworth.
A further box visit back in October 2015 was Ulceby Signal Box.
Ulceby had evolved to cover quite a significant area compared with its original area. It had a reduced frame and an IFS panel. There was also room for a panel to cover Brocklesby but this never happened.
Sadly the box was demolished with undue haste following closure, before the local S&T even had time to recover equipment for spares, the box coming down with everything still in place.
One of the new signals can be seen, ready for York ROC to take over.
We have some Irish friends, who think Cape Cod is just about all right, particularly Provincetown. We are much of their opinion. But they never go there without being entirely grossed out by all the salt water taffy. Taffy, pronounced with an aggressively flat æ digraph, is a soft, sticky candy that is always sold wrapped up in a twist of wax paper, to protect it, presumably, from the moist sea air. I haven't been anywhere, on either coast, where it isn't made and sold as a necessary part of the shore experience. I don't think the tourists would ever go home, if it wasn't for this stuff, ripping out their fillings.
I sometimes think that our Irish friends take exception to the pronunciation of the word, perhaps thinking it's a Yankee mangling of the insular English word, toffee. Indeed, we have toffee, too, but it's a different animal, entirely. Maybe they resent the use of a word that is a tribal slur in England for the Welsh. Hard to say. They might not have a taste for it. I mean, they actually eat and enjoy Turkish delight, which is just nasty.
Oh, yes, this box suggests a piece of salt water taffy to me. I'm highly impressionable and maybe a little impressionistic.
I finally photographed this series I have been wanting to do for two years!
In March of 2018, Fortune Cookie Soap (a family run bath and soap company in Oklahoma) did a sailor moon themed limited edition line, called "Soap Scouts in the Name of FCS." The blind monthly box was released March 10th, 2018, which had six products. Then at the end of the month of March, then released the huge extended collection.
This photo series showcases the extended collection.
Princess Serenity / Sailor Moon's tribute honored her in her regal glory. The smell and products were called "Moon Princess". In the monthly blind box, her product was a clarifying shampoo - shown here: flic.kr/p/GvMx5P
For the extended line, her products were extended into:
Body Wash
Lip Scrub
Whipped Cream
Whipped Soap
Bubble Scoop
Bath Bomb (The little red bow on top is made of soap!)
Fortune Cookie Soap (shown in different picture)
Moon Princess Scent Description for the clarifying shampoo:
For Love and Justice, the pretty sailor suited soldier Sailor Moon! In the name of the moon, I will punish you, untamed hair! Jelly filled donuts, bubblegum, cotton candy, and lemon drops, transform your locks to a state of complete serenity with this perfect clarifying shampoo.
They say there's money to be made from photography - maybe not by the photographer through!
And this is only one box!
A lovely Topper Made by persons unknown decorated the post-box outside the Post Office in Swanage, Dorset.
The sides of this box are a single plank of wood, almost certainly cedar, that was bent in three places.
How was this done? Well, once the maker had fashioned a plank to tolerances that might challenge a modern furniture maker, the maker cut a groove widthwise across the plank at each of the intended corners. Considerable skill and craftsmanship went into planning the shape of the cut and executing the plan. The groove was deep, but it did not go all the way through the plank. Then the wood was steamed to soften it. When the wood was soft enough, the plank was bent 90 degrees at each of the grooves until the two ends of the plank met. Voilà , a bentwood box!
I'd assume the ends of the plank were fastened to each other right away and, if it were me, I'd attach the bottom promptly to prevent warping.
As for the art, the images are highly stylized animals common to the coastal environment. The iconography also included what some Europeans would call "mythical" creatures, though the First Nations people probably thought of them in different terms.
The selection and combination of images communicated complex and important information about the box's owner and the owner's family and clan.
If you want to study this subject deeply, read The Transforming Image: Painted Arts of Northwest Coast First Nations, by Bill McClellan and Karen Duffek, Douglas & McIntyre, Vancouver/Tornonto, University of Washington Press, Seattle (2000).
The Canadian Encyclopedia provides the following information about the Tsimshian peoples:
"The term Tsimshian (Tsim-she-yan, meaning "People of the Skeena") is often broadly applied to all those northern BC Indian groups speaking languages of the Tsimshian language family: NISHGA (or Nisga'a), GITKSAN and the Coast Tsimshian. The latter, sometimes referred to as the Tsimshian Proper, included groups along the lower Skeena River from the Kitselas Canyon and Kitsumkalum (near Terrace) and the adjacent coast south to Milbanke Sound, including Port Simpson, Metlakatla (in the Prince Rupert area), Kitkatla, Hartley Bay and Kitasu. The population of this latter group is 6569 (1996c)."
"In 1887, a group of 825 Tsimshians following missionary William Duncan moved to a site near Ketchikan, Alaska, where they founded the settlement of New Metlakatla. Archaeological excavations in the harbour at Prince Rupert have unearthed the remains of cedar plankhouse villages that date back 5000 years; thus, the Tsimshians claim one of the oldest continuous cultural heritages in the New World. Tsimshian groups are also generally held to be related historically to the Penutian peoples of Oregon and California."

In our last installment of "The Box", Phillip exaggerated himself and Marble off of the Empire State Building by stating the exaggeration "Our house is made of gingerbread" and so it was.
"AWWWWWWWW!" screamed both Marble and Phillip.
"Muahahahaha!" chanted the ants.
"Marble, I am not that hungry anymore."
"You know what we need to do Phillip."
And they both chanted the exaggeration, "We are stuck in a box, we are stuck in a box."
"Don't forget with a llama named Greg," reminded Phillip.
And so it was, both Marble, Phillip and Greg the llama found themselves still stuck in the box.

I made this using yummy goodies from Emma's Paperie...I'm guest designing there this month! I used Dream Street papers by Audrey Neal, Owl paper by Sassafras Lass, mini Jenni Bowlin paper and tickets, and Making Memories epoxy accents to decorate this scalloped keepsake box...=) So much fun! Thanks for peeking!

Cats come frome space 10.000 years ago in box shaped quantum spaceship that move in space-time.
they arrive on earth, but something goes wrong and they can't return home.
century passes and they lost the galactic knowledge, they forgot that are astronauts.
but every time that a cat see a box, he must jump into. maybe it will be the box that bring back to home.
Shrewsbury station and signal box seen
the Lea Valley Railway Club "Ffestiniog Orbital" railtour going round the Abbey Foregate curve.
This tour ran from Euston to Wolverhampton where the tour split. Half the tour got on DMUs down the Cambrian to Pwllheli and back to Porthmadog followed by the Ffestiniog railway to Blaenau Ffestiniog and 40122 back to Stafford. The other half of the tour did the same circle in the opposite direction.
