How do creative professionals who are paid to think outside the box express themselves? At Corey McPherson Nash, we do it inside the box—a shallow, glass-topped, wooden box, to be exact.
14 years ago we resuscitated the quaint craft of shadow-box making and turned it into a company ritual. The rules are simple: Don't go outside the box, and don't put anything living inside the box. But the object is ambitious: to provide a hands-on tutorial in Corey McPherson Nash's organizational culture. "Our basic operating principle is to define broad goals, supply a little structure, and then give people the freedom to do creative work."
With the shadow boxes, that principle has produced wildly diverse visions. Among the completed boxes: a vivid frightscape, complete with a crank for animating dancing-devil cutouts; a meditation on "what it could have been," featuring a loose marble and a list of design possibilities; and Tom Corey's own taxonomy of "bad seeds."
I give these modern style boutique boxes to clients who has 4x6 prints with me. Each box holds 250 photos.
The idea is to place their memories in a solid keepsake box to protect and store their photos. It's a gloss black textured box with my logo stamped in gold foil. The ribbon decor is handmade by me and whatever color is available is what's given. As you can see, these boxes are really simple, elegant, and presentable - a nice way to show off your photos!
I created this bare elements shadow box using Marah Johnson's line Gala from Creative Imaginations. These are some of my favorite photos of my daughter.

A old Chessie System box car sits on the siding at Fuller yard in Grand Rapids, Michigan. These cars had been sitting east of Lowell, Michigan for the past few years. Now they are tearing up the tracks in that area. Good by to apart of American History
A custom I did of Cooper's Box Fox.
I got to meet Cooper while I was out in LA and he's just a kid and already making some of the most imaginative and awesome papertoys! So here is our little colab. Check Cooper's work here:
"Tell me more about this 'birthday' thing, Pawpaw.. Cake? Wrapping paper?"
"Oooooo.....BOXES..?! "
Freddy Ray is one year old today. Hard to believe, but true. He is a blessing in all of our lives, and we all hope to be blessings in his.
Someday, he will widen the family circle and bless the life of some girl who hasn't even been born yet.. Such is the way of the world, and God's Plan for it, for us, for him, and for that lucky little girl, whose heart will be moved when they meet.
But for now, ripping wrapping paper, smashing cake, and playing with the boxes is enough. Happy Birthday, Frederick. We love you!
Resolved: that in 2015 more objects shall leave this house than enter it, primarily through donations of useful (but no longer used) things to charities. (I notice that today we are donating 5 boxes and a chair - and a small box is arriving. At least the balance is in the right direction.)

Over the past few days Puss has taken up residence in the shipping box that the 1/24 scale DMS arrived in.
Here she is enjoying a chicken lunch.
Storage boxes that my daughter and I created using very inexpensive plastic containers, some fabric, a little thought, and some ribbon! :) They work great and look even better!
The Tuck Box was constructed by designer-builder Hugh Comstock in 1927, either as his office or in response to his wife's hobby of making "Otsy-Totsy" dolls. It was first used as a restaurant in the early 1930's and was named "Sally's". The building just to the rear was also built by Comstock in 1929 and was used as a garden shop, and much later as The Tuck Box Gift Shop. The kiosk next to the patio gate was added in 1931.
In the early 1940's, two sisters from England started the small tea room which they named The Tuck Box. After operating the restaurant for eight years, Mrs. Bumbridge and Mrs. Watson, sold to another British couple, John and Elsie Grandfield. Elsie's delicious recipes have had the greatest and most lasting impact on The Tuck Box. Many are still in use today.
In 1948, the Grandfields hired young Lucille Pinkston who eventually bought the restaurant in 1960. By 1964, Lucille had become Mrs. Glenn Berry and the couple also bought the property. In 1976, Glenn and Lucille sold the property and business to another long-time employee, Aleen Hillbun and her husband Harvey, thus ending Lucille's twenty-six years of association with and devotion to The Tuck Box English Tea Room.
Many members of the Hillbun family helped in the restaurant and the neighboring gift shop in the ensuing years. After her husband, Harvey, passed away in 1987, Aleen withdrew from the business. Her sister, Phyllis Yelusich, saved the day and took over full management of the restaurant. The Tuck Box Gift Shop continued to survive until it was closed in November, 1996. Today, the delicious preserves, scone mix, whole grain cereal, tea and other items are available for purchase at The Tuck Box or by mail order.
On Thanksgiving Day, November 28,1996, ownership of both the property and The Tuck Box English Tea Room was assumed by Zigmont J. LeTowt and his wife, Dianne. Jody (known by his middle name) and Dianne have been residents of Carmel since the early 1960's. They owned and operated Le Bistro…from 1969 until May, 1997. Sadly, Dianne passed away in May, 2002. In late 2003, their older son Jeffrey assumed operation of the Tuck Box. Jeff was born and raised in Carmel. He graduated from Colorado State University in 1993 with a degree in resort management. He will strive to maintain the esprit that has made The Tuck Box a Carmel tradition for over sixty years.

Brocklesby station and signal box sseen just before closure of the box in October 2015 just before York ROC took over control of the area.
The box is a curiosity, not only is it sunk into the island platform but its panel was intended as an emergency one that could switch in and out as required. The box was to close and Ulceby would have taken over the immediate area, however Brocklesby Signal Box remained and the panel took its place within the huge box, whose levers were removed and the frame boarded over, but it still remained beneath.
