A Post to INSPIRE...a MEMORY BOX keepsake

I originally came across this post on the Whatever Dee Dee Wants Blog. Her blog took me to a link on Martha Stewart featuring Darcy Miller who happens to be the editor for Martha Stewart Weddings. Darcy Miller's Family show was featured in the February issue of Martha and boy oh boy to be in attendance would be such as amazing experience.

"Darcy Miller, editorial director of Martha Stewart Weddings and an avid chronicler, celebrates life's meaningful moments and turns them into charming keepsakes."

Charming is right, take a look for yourself....Below are some of my favourite memory boxes.


I was even inspired to create my very own memory box for my daughter. This past summer I took my little girl to the beach I spent every summer going to while growing up. I decided to frame her little bikini along with a picture of the beach bum herself catching some rays. It's surely a day I never want to forget so what better way to capture it forever than in a memory frame. The frame will be hung in Ashtyn's bathroom tomorrow. Wonderful!!
