I made a box to hold our Settlers of Catan resource and development cards. I get a bit tetchy when the neat piles of cards start getting messy on the table (anal, moi?)

Yet another "super macro" experiment, this time with the edge of one of the many moving boxes in my apartment. The larger view shows a little more detail.

By chance a few years ago we found we had a distant relative in Tasmania and as we were already going to Australia we decided to visit Tasmania too. He turned out to be a really interesting man and used to be the Chief Superintendent of Prisons. In July 1989 he confiscated these trinket boxes that were made "illegally" by one of the Prisoners at Risdon maximum security Prison. They are beautifully made albeit a bit rustic, completely made out of old matchsticks - it must have taken months if not years to collect that many sticks. The larger box has been lined, and has a mirror inside, plus 2 chains and hinges to stop the top falling too far back, these extra pieces also must have been hard to get hold of! I wonder who they were intended for?
He gave them to my husband because he knew he collected boxes :)
so pretty and detailed i've seen them used as DECORATION in various places. how many boxes can you say that for?

A closer photo of the decoration at the bottom of the lid of the top hat box. The cherubs are waving top hats!
Box is 14" x 10" x 6.5". Outside of box is made from figured makore trimmed with black walnut along the top and black walnut legs. Top of the box is book-matched black walnut trimmed with ebony and amboyna burl. The inside of the box is black walnut with black walnut trays.
I call it "The Alien Box" because of the image on the lid.
This is Malton Signal Box and is a NE S1a type from circa 1873. It has an IFS (Individual Function Switch) panel dating from 1966 but was extended 1993 when the box took over control of Heslerton and Rillington areas. All signals here are colour lights and the crossing is operated from a barrier control unit inside the box. The box works Absolute Block to Weaverthorpe and Kirkham Abbey.
By this point the snow was coming down fast but I think it is a nice addition to the shot.
A little friend of ours turned 5 and she received a personalized doll in its own box with trading cards, based on one of her drawings.
You can also have your own personalized doll or softie if you submit one of your drawings.

This Octagon Box measures 5” x 5” and is 3 ¼” tall. There are 128 pieces on the box in the diamond and triangle shape. The box is finished in its natural color with 5 or 6 coats of a clear wiping varnish rubbed in by hand. The pieces are a bit over 3/16” thick glued onto a birch plywood base. The type of wood is listed on the bottom of the box from the center out. On this box is “Satinwood” from Sri Lanka (a very pretty wood), “Wenge” from West Africa and “Hackberry” from Missouri. Some of the Wenge on this box has what I call a “lightning strike” look, as the grain is jagged, a very nice effect. It is lined with black velvet.
Each year, Gallery Route One in Point Reyes invites over a hundred artists to create unique works of art using a wooden box.
Here are the inspiring artworks they created this year: they range in style from whimsical to poignant and thought-provoking. These photos were taken on closing day, when the gallery organized a live auction for each of this year’s 150 boxes. The proceeds support the gallery’s exhibits and community programs.
Two of the boxes were created by members of our art community: Howard Rheingold (a.k.a. Dr. Rindbrain) contributed an illuminated box called ‘Magical’, while Geo Monley and Meryl Rubenstein made ‘Les Puzzles.’
Members of ‘Pataphysical Studios came to cheer for their peers -- Dr. Really was the highest bidder for Dr. Rindbrain’s piece, which was thus kept in the family. After the show, we all went to Stellina to celebrate over a nice dinner.
