A Heartfelt Greeting

heart shaped keepsake box

I’m excited to finally be joining the blogging world -it sure has taken me long enough.  This has been a goal of mine for a while now, so finally making it happen by starting this blog is scary-yet-relieving.  I dont want to allow my expectations to overwhelm me so instead I intend to keep this blog for my own enjoyment and if anyone else happens to enjoy reading my jumbled thoughts and random inspiration then thats a plus for me.  Now that i have my expectations set low enough to not be discouraged I hope that I have learned enough from some of my own favorite bloggers to make this blog a reflection of my own personality and style.

I made this box with a group of 3rd and 4th grade girls (they each had their own square box -which is easier to cover because square= no round parts) some of the girls got very creative while others just put one paper on each side of the box and were done with it, they all looked pretty cute and were nice little keepsakes for them to take home.  I really enjoyed making them, I ended up making about 5 total (not to mention finishing up some of the girl’s boxes) and I gave all away but this one, probably because it is a heart and just too cute for me not to keep myself.  It now houses my charm bracelet and sits proudly atop my desk. 

these are some of the girls boxes.

Have a wonderful Friday! 😀
