This evening a strange box turned up in my living room. I wonder if it's got any thing to do with it being my birthday tomorrow.
Hadlow Road Station , Willaston , Cheshire .
This Grade II listed Victorian station has been lovingly restored to appear as it did in the 1950s – complete with a signal box and a British Rail ticket office
In the midst of being prepared for dispatch to FNB branches countrywide, FNB's 2010 promotional stands are a lively consolidation of the several football icons it has used in its various initiatives and campaigns. Makarapas, Kuduzelas, footballs and the well-loved tournament mascot, Zakumi, combine to portray what football fans, both local and international can count on seeing (and hearing) during the month long tournament.
Have you applied for your tickets yet? Visit www.fifa.com or any FNB Branch before 22 January to apply. Don't miss out - make sure you can say 'I was there'!
This is my “Bloodwood Star” Ring Box. It measures 3 1/2” x 3 1/2” and is 2” high. There are 72 pieces, both full and half size diamonds and triangles, on this box. On the top there are 32 half size pieces where it would normally have 16 full size pieces. It is finished in its natural color with 5 or 6 coats of clear wiping varnish, rubbed in by hand. The pieces are a bit over 3/16” thick, glued onto a Baltic Birch base.
The type of wood is listed on the bottom of the box from the center out. On this box is “Bloodwood” from South America, “Satinwood” from Sri Lanka, “Purpleheart” from Central or South America and “Wenge” from West Africa.
I made this box in 1996. On the bottom I signed it, listed the wood, and dated it. After the date, the words “Foot Cut” let you know I made it on a foot powered table saw.
It is lined with black velveteen. It has 3 “ring pads” on the bottom forming 2 slots about 2 ½” long, for rings.
A grilled mushroom, some baba ganoush, some stuffed green olives, some kalamata olives, some tabouli, some Moroccan chickpeas on couscous, some pitta bread and a slice of orange & almond cake covered in chocolate ganache.
Every day since I left the house with my Ex, I have written my daughter a letter without fail. I wanted her to know that I thought about her every day- even if I didn't get to see or talk to her.
This was 11 years in the making and encompasses so much history. Almost 4,000 pages in 20 journals, and then I made a box to hold them all. There were pages from when she was a little girl, drawings she gave me, guitar picks from a performance where I dedicated a song to her- pages from camping and traveling all around the world.
Needless to say she was amazed when I gave them to her... this completed my 58th Lifetime dream.

Little wooden boxes wich I covered with crochet candy cane stripes and placed a holly leaf (Attic 24) on. Put two little candles in it and it makes a great present! I hope to sell them at a very low key christmas market in a local petting zoo.
I made this box a while back for teacher gifts for Christmas. They are made out of tags. I got the instructions off of the blog over at Tombow. I forgot to upload them and I forgot to take pictures after they were filled. There are holes in the top that you tie with twine or ribbon after you put the candy in. They are very simple to make.
I just used the resist technique on the tags and then designed around that. It was super easy and fun. I will try to find the link with instructions. I just checked and it's eluding me at the moment.
I am in the process of rebranding my business and my Etsy shop and this is another step in the direction of creating an overall cohesive look-- an identity, if you will. And you will.
This was one of many quilt tops I made and donated to a group which completes them for world relief efforts.
This is the box that the Disabled Guy built for my friends who play various historical sea captains at the renaissance faire.
Now, part of the discussion with me on what it had to look like (and I showed him photos of the previous box- which looked like a little coffin), he asked: "What if I made it look like a treasure chest?"
Well, here we are. This treasure chest is very light (I can lift it easily and today, I'm in flareup mode), and as solid as a brick. The handles are garage door lift handles (we discussed strength/comfort with someone who builds garage doors), the hinges aren't as decorative as he wanted (those were too big to fit on the box). The latch was pure luck (we spotted it as we were walking away from the hinge section at Home Depot). All the hardware is from The Home Depot and not a craft store, so it is solid and as well as decorative.

I left this box out on purpose to test if my cats could resist sitting in it.
They could not.
SCIENCE.

Had to get all of my old collectables out of the basement - there's stuff down there I had completely forgotten about.
This was a shocker. I didn't even remember acquiring it.
