About 8 years ago, when I stopped making my Character
Creations, I tried to start a new art business creating memory boxes for other
people. I wanted to take people’s
vacations, special events, family or pet memorabilia and create a shadow box or
standing box with collage and drawers for them.
I called this “Forget-Me-Not” and I had brochures and samples made. One sample was for my daughter with items
from her trip to Russia. The business never
took off. But when I heard the Classics
IV song, ‘Traces of Love’, I knew that it was perfect for the creation of a
shadow box. So I made a box with some of
the items mentioned in the song—faded photograph, old love letter, ticket
stubs, and a ribbon from her hair. This
is the type of box that I had in mind with Forget-Me-Not.
