I cannot help myself. Here’s a story about records, books, postage, recycling and reuse.
This box started out life containing 16 copies of Patrick O’Farrell’s paperback book with ISBN 0-86840-635-X, sent from the University of New South Wales Press (printed on the box). It must have been sent to Readings bookshop in Carlton, who reused it to send something to Dr Phillip Law (1912-2010) at his home in Canterbury (address label on the bottom of the box, unfortunately Post Paid Australia with no postmark). Dr Law used it to store excess publications about Antarctica (inscribed on the box in his own hand). On the death of Dr Law in 2010, the box ended up with us, the eScholarship Research Centre, who have been working with Dr Law on his papers since the mid 1980s. We have the final material from Dr Law now processed and boxed in special National Library of Australia boxes, ready for transfer to their custody.
Looking up the book in the National Library of Australia’s Trove catalogue and checking the ISBNs of the different editions reveals that this box originally held the third edition of The Irish in Australia, published in 2000.
I needed a box to send 18 copies of a book we have just published (November 2011), Founders, Firsts and Feminists: Women Leaders in Twentieth-century Australia, to a conference being held in Canberra next week. This box did the job nicely!

A functional work of art! One-of-a-kind, hand-painted jewelry box that was rescued from a thrift store. Collaged pages from a vintage book adorn this fun and functional jewelry box.
A boxy zip toiletry bag that I made for my husband - fully lined with no raw edges, all the seams are enclosed. Inspired by tutorials on the web, but mostly I improvised the design.

Light box with 2 compact florescent lamps. My favorite necklace bust (an up-ended milk glass bowl) is inside. There are lots of bright window around, so if it's sunny, I often don't turn the lamps on.
The lightweight box folds up and the lights fit under furniture since this is my dining room table, which also triples as the kid's preferred homework spot.
You need to make sure that you label your cardboard bench covers with the correct city, or who knows where they'll end up. A potential disaster averted.

Decided to take on a few new subjects late in the evening. A box of Christmas ornaments, and a fallen worklight. Suprisingly good subjects, however, they talked too much for me.

I have many favorite places n Second Life. Some are brilliantly creative and others are simple, elegant and immersive.
Art Box is a favorite. This is a gallery of internationally famous art by well-known artists in our world history. These are the artworks that we most recognize.
Here, you can become part of the art. You can attach props and be a character in the work itself. This is a place that will put a smile on your face.
Art Box is set up so that you can snap great pictures of yourself while you are in the art... in the piece itself. So have fun!
If you go, try to spend at least 2 hours here. There is a lot of see and a lot to try out. And, bring friends. It's a wonderful place to share with those who love art.
This is a box of homemade dofu (tofu) at the Zhao's Farmer hostel at Jiankou. The cloth wraps everything and holes line the box for draining excess fluid.

The memory of my lunch box and what my mother put inside it.
The memory of going to baseball games at Westgate Park where I watched Tony Perez play as a minor leaguer. Two of my baseball hero's are pictured here... Ted William and Eddie Mathews (both of San Diego}.
The memory of owning my first pocket knife and wristwatch.
The memory of marbles and all the other games I played.
And lastly the memory of my bullfrog 'Black Jack'. Once homework and chores were finished my parents let me off to the fields and the canyons. The memory of all the snakes, lizards, and insects that I brought home and was allowed to keep. Black Jack shown here was donated to The San Diego Zoo one day and my dad and I were brought back behind the displays to see everything there!
I lived a very full and active life as a boy...

Serena loves this silly box. It makes her feel powerful to throw it around, carry it around or push it around, and it's the perfect size to sit on............and perform!
