This Heirloom Quality Potpourri Holder Wooden Box would make a beautiful gift for the “Person who has everything”, male or female.

 

It is a unique, precision, fine-crafted Home Decor keepsake that can be and will be passed down to your children and grandchildren.

 

A firmly attached vinyl screen on the bottom allows air to circulate up and out through the pewter insert in the lid. This design keeps your potpourri in place and allows the fragrance to fill the room.

Inside the Victorian cash box were three cash bowls, I removed them and made three new bowls from tissue paper mache.

 

During the layering process of this bowl I included some pressed rose petals from mums funeral flowers and some snippets from her diary's, which I printed onto tissue paper. Once dried I stitched semi-dried rose petals onto the bowl with metalic threads. I further embellished this with torn strips of apricot chiffon, some of which were stitched into the bowl and others held with golden studs in swathes around the outside of the bowl.

 

Once finished I placed three dried, purple roses inside (again from her funeral flowers), I then sprinkled them with hand made rose petal beads.

This is a memory box similar to those that Joseph Cornell would create. This one contains artifacts that represent my current journey to better health. The rollercoaster is the original Mr. Twister from Elitch Gardens that I rode once as a girl. My journey resembles that rollercoaster ride right now.

 

About the time the Army shipped me to Vietnam my parents purchased a pair summer cottages--part of a retired resort--at Wall Lake. While the cottages weren't on the water, you could see the lake in two directions, and we had docking privileges at the end of the road. 'Twas a pleasant place to summer.

 

This was the larger cottage. A few years back the little cottage was still standing, but it's now gone. (But the photos I took in 2005 are just awful. Last February 17 I did better.)

 

Mom & Dad sold the Kalamazoo house in 1972, so for a time this was our primary residence. Neither cottage was properly winterized--in fact, the small cottage only had a space heater--so we were glad to move back into Kalamazoo when they bought a Winchell-neighborhood home in early December.

 

My parents sold the Wall Lake place in '73. Living in two locations turned out to be a lot of work. So we never returned to First Street, except to inspect, clean up, and visit friends.

 

Frankly I'm surprised that any of the resort cottages remain. The base of Wall Lake's point had mostly cabins when we lived there; now there are many substantial homes. Four decades will do that.
