Mona's Dare - Boxes

This week Mona dares us to show our boxes. Here are a few of mine.
I will even tell you a little about them!

This one is for stationery, thank you notes, pretty paper, postage stamps and a couple of pens. The box was a Christmas gift from someone at the office.

I can't remember where I got this one but it stores business cards of trades people I use, pizza takeout flyers and receipts of recent purchases. Every once it a while the box gets full and I clear out the receipts.

This box stores cheese plates that my son gave me...I love the box as much as I love the plates..

Below is one left over from a fragrance set I had years and years ago. I keep old things in it that have sentimental value...an old watch, a few photos, a sweater pin, a bracelet, a tiny bible (1 inch by 1 inch) 8mm film of my wedding, a seashell, a tiny sewing kit, a cameo pendant, a small lock and two shells.

And the box below sits on the counter in my kitchen near the telephone. It holds an address book that came with the box, a small accordian file, recipe cards, note paper, sissors and a pen or two.

If you would like to participate in Mona's Dare this week, show us your boxes and post the link here in the comments at Mona's site.
