I used to collect old money and came across this old box that I stored it in. It was buried on some old tote that had made its way to the back of the closet and only resurfaced over Christmas when we repurposed the guest room into a permanent home office.

(Apologies, I do not have a piggy bank and, with COVID, I didn't feel comfortable in going searching stores for one. This box is truly a money box and that is all it has ever contained for the past 40 years. I hope it will be acceptable for the theme, as I did not see the later note that a piggy bank was the intent, since the original challenge indicated any shape and that a slot through which to push money was not mandatory).
One of Jerry's toys made by Arnold from the early 50's It has a winding mechanism that makes it go and another thing to make it turn right and left.
The box is so cool I had to show it off
Oh No ! Bentley Heath Signal Box is being ripped apart like a Christmas Cracker, with little respect for the yaers it has stood there guarding Mill Lane & The Railway.......10/02/2008
This is for a event which theme is "box". Thus I tried my best to build a lego box with bricks. The reason I choose 6985 is simple: I own this set :p. The concept of my work is: Imagination from the box. I built a new spaceship with limited parts because I don't wanna display the original one :)
Unfortunately I cannot found the black classic space minifig, so I used blue one instead on the cover.
This is the latest group photo of my Box Camera Team. There are two new ones here that haven't been posted individually yet, but I will get to that later. I collect Zeiss Ikon and Voigtlander so have included the one and only Voigtlander Box, that I know of anyway. All of the cameras in this collection are in very good to excellent working and cosmetic condition. For the photo they are arranged from earliest (bottom left) to latest (top right). Made in Germany from 1927 through 1956. Represented here are all of the basic models with several production variations thrown in. There are a few more minor variations out there, so I am always looking!
These are our old money boxes with a selection of old pre decimal coins that we would have saved in them. The Burslem & District Industrial Co-operative Society Ltd are long gone. Leek United Building Society on the other hand are just like it says on the box "Firm and lasting". I can still vaguely remember my Mum taking me into the local branch with an ancient Leek United money box. The gent behind the counter commented on its age and went to find a suitable key. When he opened the box there was a collection of coins, buttons and an assortment of odds & ends that caused a certain amount of merriment. Mum made the total up to ten shillings and I became the latest member of Leek United Building Society complete with a brand new blue moneybox. Years later I got to know the gent who signed me up, it turned out that he retired on that day, I was his last new member. "Money Box"... "Smile on Saturday"...
There were 30 minutes of sun shining through the windows this weekend (a rare occurrence during Oregon's winter), so I wandered quickly through the house searching for something to fit this week's Macro Monday theme - "The Space In-Between". Surprise, surprise - this plastic box of small tomatoes was waiting in the sunshine just for me.

LONDON PUB.
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, (*_*)

A pair of blue tits is busy collecting moss & building a nest in this box, I'm hoping they are successful and we will see some fledgelings in a couple of months time!

I love this little cute music box. It's a gift from my sister. I love that lovely song. you can listen that song here.
The eastern box turtle is one of six extant subspecies of the common box turtle. It has a high-domed, rounded, hard upper shell, called a carapace. The vivid, orange and yellow markings on its dark brown shell distinguish it from other box turtles, as do the four toes on its hind feet. Its distinct coloring camouflages it among the damp earth, fallen leaves and other debris found on the floor of moderately moist forests.
The underside of its shell, called its plastron, is dark brown and hinged. All box turtles have this bilobed plastron, which allows them to almost completely shut their shell. When threatened, the box turtle pulls its body into its shell and waits for the danger to pass. Its shell is also unique in that it can regenerate. In one reported case, the carapace of a badly burned box turtle completely regenerated.
Box turtles have a hooked upper jaw, and most have a significant overbite. Their feet are slightly webbed. There are many ways to tell a male and female box turtle apart. Males are generally larger and have shorter, thicker tails than females. Males also have short, thick, curved hind claws, while females' hind claws are long, straight and thin.
Eastern box turtles walk energetically with their heads upright and may travel about 50 meters (55 yards) in one day. A homing instinct, an innate ability to navigate to a "home base" despite being in an unfamiliar area, helps this turtle find its way back home.
