this is our version of
a 10 year calendar box.
ev made the box.
he also cut and
date stamped every card.
scout decorated the month cards.
and special day cards.
i chose the month cards
from a vintage pack i found.
we decided to use
a mixed color index card
palette.
this box we made
for jon cody, val & sammy baer
for Christmas.
today we are
making our own.
ev is stamping dates as i type.
to use this memory box
you simply write the year 2013
on the first line each day.
next to it jot a phrase
about something that happened,
you created, you made for dinner,
you did for the first time...
{you get the idea}
on that day.
make it a habit.
it's easy. really.
each year repeat this.
in 10 years you will
have a miniature
calendar journal
all in one small box.
so what are you waiting for?
you still have time to make yours.
if you need a box, you can
substitute a small fruit
box - like blueberries
and raspberries come in.
let me know
how yours turns out.
thanks for stopping by.
until next time.
happiness to you.
from me.
with heart.
