This a my jewelry box from the 70's when I was a Girl Scout. I don't use it any more but wanted to share with you on this "scavenger hunt".
Practicing with lighting.
Im planning some photos with cardboard props and masks. Just experimenting with the technical side.
I just bought a Canon 580EX II flash and I was trying it out.
For this shot I used a home-made snoot made from a pringles can. I plan to use this technique outside lighting the subjects face for emphasis.
Photos coming soon.
There is a live monarch in that box. Slip the elastic, lift the lid, and wait for it to fly away to Mexico. Most monarchs only live 2-3 weeks, but every year during late summer a generation hatches that can survive up to eight months, allowing them to migrate down to Mexico, wait out the winter, and then start to head back. They won't make it back. They start mating again in the spring in places like Texas, and their kids will only live 2-3 weeks, flying north the whole time. Eventually they get to Canada and the cycle starts over again. The whole point of the tagging and Monarch Watch is to figure out how they do it.
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.

Shame that Rich didn't read what it said on the box for our rather large subwoofer before dropping it on the amplifier. Luckily both survived, if a little dented.

Monticello Box on the southwestern side of the San Mateo Mountains, Socorro County, New Mexico, 10 Apr 2005.
I've rescued several box turtles from the highway over the years. I usually just let them go in the back yard. When I see a box turtle in the yard I wonder whether it's one I found on the road or whether it just wandered in from somewhere.
I've only ever put binding on a quilt, so this was a first for me. The pattern didn't give much guidance on how to finish the corner binding edges, nor could I find any good pictures. I had to experiment a bit before I was happy with the results. It looks really snazzy, if I do say so myself.
This fabric box was constructed for me by quilter Jan Zietlow, in Boulder, Montana,
from fabrics I chose. I like that it's "a different kind of box." Each side of the triangular
top measures 5.5 inches and the box stands 3.75 inches tall closed.
