Lady Anomaly, dear creature, has sent me a memory box without knowing of my history making them. Opening the box was like drinking forgotten water. What she sent is love and thankfulness and enigmatic sweethearts curled in bed together in night-dark places.
There is a walnut shell inside, split in half and painted inside with the colours of an abalone seashell. I'm not sure how she did it, (perhaps it is nail-polish.) There is a tiny tube of paper curled into a fitted into a piece of vine as if the plant had been coaxed to grow around it. When slipped out and unrolled, it has two elegant hands gesturing in black and silver, with the words THANKYOU FOR YOU PRETTY. Everything tangled in a soft bed of dried flowers and lilac thread beaded with amber.
Wonderfully, oddly, delightfully, our boxes seem created from the same language, (which leads me to wonder if it's a girl thing or if her and I are simply the same species). Even the ambient spaces are filled with a similar mixture of petals and vines and glitter and wire, and as with my memory boxes, there is a definite centerpiece. (Without any focal points, the sensual riot of colour and fragile textures of memory boxes tend to be interesting but not compelling.)
Hers is a lovely coup de gras, a reconstructed silver locket in the shape of a heart. On the front are two flowers, like something a grandmother might give, but inside, she's glued subtle little cogs, transforming an innocuous piece of jewelry into a clockwork heart, amazing and perfect in every detail. Aged and burned and polished again. Examining it, I can taste how much care it must have taken. The song of it fills my entire room.
I wonder now what happened to my boxes. If the man I gifted them to kept them or if they found their death in an alley somewhere. I wonder, too, if I still have the skill to make a new one. It's been a long time. I don't remember anymore why I ever stopped.
This was waaaaaay out of my comfort zone! But in the end Barb's scramble theme enabled me to use this gorgeous memory box butterfly die. I used lace background embossed in white for lots of texture.

I took this beautiful wooden box, added mosaics of colored glass, BB's, copper buttons, and millefiori beads and added a small mirror on the top for an added elegant emphasis. The inside of the box is lined with rust colored felt.
As with all my creations, this is a handmade, one-of-a-kind mosaic box that can be copied, but not duplicated. Each piece is lovingly hand formed, mosaics pieces are individually hand-cut, and meticulously arranged.

This is one of 6 art journaling pages I created. These pages will be turned into gift journals and will eventually have stitching and fabric on them with pages inside. I will share the finished journals next week on Nov. 8th. Each page shares a quote from Dr. Henrietta Mears—one of the great Bible teachers. Today’s quote says:
Quote by Dr. Henrietta Mears: "Prayer is not getting things from God but getting into communion with God."
Quote by Dr. Henrietta Mears: "Labor at prayer then watch God work."
