life inside this box







i have been wallowing in the wondrous world of boxes. i decided to marry two of my favorite things, antique boxes and technology. or more simply put, an excuse to go on an antique box hunt. my favorite was a tiny, brown, ring box with a lovely little penciled in date of 1932. i just love the idea that someone looked after that box for nearly a century. one of the less precious little capsules, the Parker pen, fell victim to the laser cutter, and i fell victim to faulty planning. i only had time to complete one box/brooch, but there will be others.
